The NEX “We Believe” holiday events are in full swing at locations worldwide. The events allow the NEX to give back and say thank you to its military members and their families by recognizing the selfless contributions they make every day.

“Our NEX We Believe campaign brings the magic of the holidays to life,” said Rich Honiball, Navy Exchange Service Command (NEXCOM), Executive Vice President, Global Chief Merchandising and Marketing Officer. “It’s so much more than just savings and giveaways - it’s about family, gratefulness, life’s blessings and our nation’s brave military and their devoted loved ones. At NEXCOM we believe in giving thanks, we believe in the spirit of the holiday season but most of all, we believe that heroes walk among us!”

Through the end of the year, NEXs will be having special events and sales for service members and their families. Check with the local NEX or online at myNavyExchnage.com for more event details including store participation, specific dates, times and any pre-registration requirements.
