When a servicemember makes the ultimate sacrifice,
their legacy lives on in their children.
We stand beside these children, ready to provide college or trade school scholarships,
educational assistance, and career support their fallen parent would have wanted for them.
We serve dependent children—biological, adopted, or stepchildren—of servicemembers who lost their lives in the line of duty. This includes:
of the United States military
Active Duty, Reserve, National Guard
Deaths in combat, training, illness, suicide, or other service-related causes
Children living anywhere in the U.S. or overseas
Government programs help—but they don’t cover everything.
The average funding gap for each child is $25,000. Without support, that gap can mean missed opportunities, delayed graduations, or dreams deferred.
