What does it mean to “Take care of those left behind?”

Through scholarships, the Patriot Foundation supports the educational goals of qualifying disabled Veterans and the family members of fallen or disabled Veterans.

 

This help comes in the form of post-secondary scholarships for the family members of these soldiers.

 

We believe that education is the most important tool for creating prosperity and success in the lives of America’s youth. By supporting the families of service members impacted by post 9/11 conflicts, it not only gives them the life-changing opportunity to go to college, it also honors the sacrifices our soldiers have made for our freedom.
