About Us

For the Fallen, NFP (FTF) is an independent, nonpartisan organization founded in 2004 to raise monies for the families of United States military members that have been victimized in the current war against terrorism.

Our mission is simple: To provide financial relief to the families of military members that were killed or wounded in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Many of these families have been devastated emotionally and economically by the death or injury of a loved one. We exist in order to help these families cover the costs of food, housing, medical services, college tuitions or any other expenses that they find difficult to afford.

Our Board of Directors has a bond rooted in appreciation and admiration for these dead and wounded military members. We are committed to helping as many of their families as possible.
