About this organization
Mission
TO HONOR THE SACRIFICES OF OUR FALLEN AIR WARRIORS AND SUPPORT THE FAMILIES THEY'VE LEFT BEHIND. In the immediate aftermath of a military aviation mishap, we step in and provide the necessary assistance to the affected service members and their families. We make funds available in the days immediately following a mishap to help with family expenses such as funeral, travel, and lodging costs. Since our founding in late 2014, we have been able to support every single Class A (fatal) mishap in the Navy and Marine Corps in some way, whether that is something as simple as providing flowers and wreaths at a memorial service, to flying entire families across the country and around the world, paying for their rental car, hotel expenses, and even catering for a memorial reception. Our support does not stop there. Once the dust has settled and families have had some time to grieve their loved ones, any additional funds can be used by the family or squadron even many years afterwards to continue honoring their Sailor's or Marine's legacy.
About
We are an all-volunteer, veteran-founded non-profit organization dedicated to providing immediate post-mishap support for the Navy and Marine Corps Aviation community and their families. In addition to providing immediate support, we are also proud to ensure our fallen heroes are never forgotten and the loved ones they leave behind are always supported. We are able to honor our fallen heroes and provide for those they leave behind through your generous donations, volunteering, and business relationships. We hope you'll help us be ready to respond when the worst happens.
