Mission

Mission

Advance the educational opportunities for the children of our service-disabled veterans.

At Patriot Legacy Fund, we feel that our service did not end when we put away the uniform. We have the opportunity to honor veterans that have returned home safely, but now endure living with visible and invisible wounds. As veterans that still feel the need to answer the call, we are dedicated to helping these families and their children achieve their educational goals.

Service

Giving back comes in many forms. Military dependents have a unique perspective on what it means to serve and make sacrifices for others. Applicants are evaluated on their experiences serving within their communities; no opportunity to give back is too small.

Education

The cost of post-secondary school education continues to rise every year. Whether it be in a university setting or trade school, advancing one’s knowledge and personal growth is too important to be constrained by financial capability.

We view service and education as two components that yield unlimited returns. Our goal is to assist those that have financial need, serve others, and a desire to continually improve themselves.

“I believe that the purpose behind higher education should be more than just being able to get a well-paying job after graduation. Rather, its purpose should be focused and centralized around the idea of bettering one’s self in order to be able to better the people and community around you.”
