Honoring Those Who Serve(d)®
While stationed in DC, George W. Fuller served as a liaison for U.S. Service Members returning from overseas due to an injury or illness, which included those wounded in combat.
This unique duty allowed him to interact with thousands for U.S. Service Members on their journey to a full recovery.
One aspect of his duties was to give combat-wounded Service Members a grant in the form of a prepaid credit card. These were provided by the nonprofit organization called Army Emergency Relief and were presented on behalf of a grateful nation.
This gave him the idea to set up a fund to help provide assistance to families of U.S. Service Members that pass away. This can help offset the cost of food, lodging, transportation, and other unforeseen, incurred expenses.
So far, $3,500 has been set aside for the families of the fallen. This amount was raised through our 5th annual event and generous donations.
