How to Help

Your contribution is crucial to our success. Our ability to relieve the education burden faced by families of fallen and wounded Service members depends on your generosity. There are many ways for you to help.

Donate

EMPLOYEE MATCHING:  Your donation can make an even greater impact if your company has a matching gift program. These programs will often match employee contributions, sometimes dollar for dollar. Contact your employer for information, and we will take care of the rest. 

GIVE SECURITIES:  Donating appreciated securities is an easy way to lend your support. In most cases, you will be entitled to an income tax deduction for the full market value of your gift and you may not have to report capital gains income. Bonds and mutual fund shares can also be donated and can make a big impact. For assistance with security transfers, please e-mail us or call (202) 756-1980.
