The Folded Flag Foundation would like to wish our many supporters a very happy holiday season.

Thanks to your generosity, we awarded more than $1.8 million in educational scholarships to 205 recipients for the 2018-19 school year.

As you spend time with your family and friends this holiday season, please remember the Gold Star families who had a loved one make the ultimate sacrifice while fighting for our freedom. The loss of a parent or spouse can be especially difficult this time of year, and we ask you to keep these families in your thoughts and prayers.

If you are looking for a way to support these families through The Folded Flag Foundation, consider using AmazonSmile. This website offers all of the same products, pricing and shopping features as Amazon, but when you shop on AmazonSmile, 0.5% of your purchase price will go to the charitable organization of your choice.

If you are a government employee or service member, another way you can support Folded Flag is by making a donation through the Combined Federal Campaign (CFC). The CFC is the largest annual workplace charity campaign, raising millions of dollars a year. Pledges made by federal employees, postal and military donors support eligible nonprofits.

You can also donate directly to Folded Flag through our website. Thanks to our underwriting sponsors – Black Knight, Inc., Fidelity National Financial, FIS and ServiceLink – 100% of your donations go directly to providing educational scholarships to the spouses and children left behind.

Thank you for your continuous support, and have a wonderful holiday season.
