SILENT WARRIOR FOUNDATION

The Silent Warrior Foundation is a 501(c) charity set up by Reconnaissance Marines in memory of their fallen brothers. The Silent Warrior Scholarship Fund was set up by Reconnaissance Marines in memory of their fallen brothers. We provide access to emergency assistance, mental health services, education, and scholarships to our Veterans and their Families. Originally founded as the Silent Warrior Scholarship Fund, our mission was to awards scholarships to any college-bound person based on direct familial relationship to a Reconnaissance Marine/0321 or Critical Skills Operator/0372, based on academic achievement, and financial need. However, our mission has now evolved beyond our initial focus. We listened to the military community and our supporters. There has been an alarming rate of Veteran suicides and Veterans requiring assistance. For 2017, our board has decided to focus on our Veterans in need as well as provide scholarships. Our new mission has grown to encompass support for our Veterans & their Families by providing access to emergency assistance, mental health services, education, and scholarships.
