Since 1775, Marines have selflessly served America, and for nearly 50 years the Marine Corps Scholarship Foundation has honored this service by educating their children. The privately-funded, 501(c)(3) non-profit organization provides scholarships for post-high school education to deserving sons and daughters of Marines with particular attention given to children whose parent has been killed or wounded in action. Additionally, the Scholarship Foundation’s Heroes Tribute fund provides up to $30,000 over four years to every child of a Marine, or Navy Corpsman serving with the Marines, who have been killed in combat since September 11, 2001.
ational Remember Our Troops Campaign RELAUNCH is being implemented in three phases:
*Phase I is the transition to the new expanded/focused mission, rebranding, and launch of the new website with warrior and partner databases. We are currently in Phase I.
*Phase II is identifying combat wounded warriors and partner organizations for connections is currently being planned. Preparation for Phase III starts on Veterans Day 2017.
*Phase III is the hire of a new program manager to oversee and manage full execution of the four-pillar pipeline, connecting warriors to partner services and tracking them before, during, and after services have been provided.
*Please be aware during Phases I & II we will make every effort to connect warriors to services identified but cannot guarantee connections will be made until we move to full execution in Phase III
The mission of the navy-marine corps relief society is to provide, in partnership with the navy and marine corps, financial, educational, and other assistance in the form of interest-free loans and grants to members of the naval service of the united states, eligible family members, and survivors when in need; and to receive and manage funds to administer these programs.
