Colton Haynes waves the American Flag in this shot from his new campaign with DoSomething.org.

The 27-year-old actor has teamed up with the organization and Johnson & Johnson for Smiles for Soldiers, which asks young people to create handmade thank you cards for U.S. military service members. As a sign of their appreciation, the cards will also help these military service members feel connected to home and to the people and the country they serve.

Now through August 31st, 2016, young people can visit DoSomething.org/Smile to sign up for the campaign and learn where they can send their cards. Young people who submit a photo of the cards they create will have the chance to win a $5,000 scholarship from DoSomething.org.

“The Smiles for Soldiers campaign means a lot to me because my sister served in the Air Force,” Colton shared in a statement. “It’s so important to show gratitude and appreciation to those who fight for our country.”
