I already know what you are thinking… “another foundation?” It seems like everyone and their mother has a foundation going these days. Well guess what? Your mother just got another one – the MARSOC Foundation. Of all of the great organizations out there doing wonderful things for our injured and returning Warriors, this one is by far my favorite. But I must admit, I am extremely biased on this one.
Since the horrific events of 9/11, the demands on Special Operations Forces and their families have been unprecedented in our Nation’s history.
Today, MARSOC is deployed in over 40 countries around the world. The average MARSOC Critical Skills Operator is away from home and family more than 50% of the time, either on deployment or out-of-area training. During their service to our country, they are often exposed to combat and other hazardous activities that can have immediate and lasting impacts. As demand grows for the unique services of MARSOC, so too does the need for benevolent support.
