A prominent e-commerce entrepreneur, Andy Khawaja serves as the CEO of Allied Wallet. Andy Khawaja also supports a variety of nonprofit or not-for-profit organizations including the United Service Organizations (USO).
An organization dedicated to supporting members of the armed forces, the USO operates at or near military bases across the U.S. and throughout the world. In addition to organizing a variety of entertainment programs for the troops, the USO helps service members stay connected with their families through initiatives such as the Bob Hope Legacy Reading Program.
While deployed, service members stationed across the world can read books to their children at home through the Bob Hope Legacy Reading Program. They visit a participating USO location and record themselves reading a children’s story aloud, then USO ships that recording home to their family. Children of military members who live near participating USO offices also can record themselves reading a book and send it to a loved one who they miss. In some locations, the Bob Hope Legacy Reading Program organizes fun and educational kids’ events, such as craft activities that relate to a story time theme.
