Each year the Armed Forces Foundation continues to expand and customize its programs to meet the ever changing needs of the Armed Forces community. It is the Foundation's duty, honor and privilege to aid those who have sacrificed so much for their country.
A moment comes in the lives of all American troops when they are
asked to leave behind their families, friends and the comforts of home.
They are prepared to defend the ideals of a nation, a nation that puts
trust in its brave men and women to keep us safe and make us proud. At
the Armed Forces Foundation, we commit ourselves to serving our troops
and their families by offering support in their time of greatest need.
“ …to care for him who shall have borne
the battle, and for his widow and his orphan – to do all which
may achieve and cherish a just and lasting peace, among ourselves,
and with all nations. “
- Abraham Lincoln
The charge of caring and compassion made by President Lincoln
on March 4, 1865 still resonates with us today. Some 140 years
later, we, as citizens of this great country, have the unique opportunity
and responsibility to put President Lincoln’s words into action.
