Austin Nichols & Sophia Bush - Thanksgiving meet & greet

"One Tree Hill's Sophia Bush and Austin Nichols are spending their Thanksgiving holiday this year fulfilling exactly what the holiday is about; giving thanks to others. The young stars, along with Heroes's Milo Ventimiglia, are currently overseas generously giving their time and talent to the troops and their families stationed in Germany and Turkey.Nichols, Bush, and Ventimiglia held meet&greets the mornings of Nov. 20 and 21st in Ramstein, Germany, where they signed autographs and posed for pictures with the service members and their families. According to the official website for the USO, what the TV trio is doing leaves the troops and their family members with the most lasting emotional impressions. “USO entertainers are essential to fulfilling the USO's mission of boosting troop morale”.Bush and Nichols are no strangers to donating their time and efforts to help the morale of others in need. This past September they both helped to raise money at the 'Celebrity Autograph Fund-raiser' for a memorial wall honoring fallen police officers to be built in Wilmington, NC, where 'One Tree Hill is filmed.Bush said as a child she was always encouraged by her parents to do charity work. Now the 27-year-old actress says she wants to give that same motivation to others.
“I think people have lost sight of how important it is to give back”, Bush told Star News recently.
The next stop where Sophia Bush, Austin Nichols, and Milo Ventimiglia will place emphasis on the needs of others will be Turkey, at the Incirlik and Izmir Air Bases, where they will be until the completion of their USO tour on Nov. 25". Source: www.examiner.com
