The Allied Forces Foundation, Inc.

The Allied Forces Foundation, Inc. is designed to recognize and further the Steadfast Alliance of the United States and the United Kingdom, which nations' long history of cooperation and comradeship has most recently been tested in conflicts subsequent to the World Trade Center attacks of 9/11.

The mission of the Allied Forces Foundation, Inc. is to raise funds for Allied comrades wounded in these conflicts and to raise awareness of the ongoing challenges faced by injured soldiers and their families.

A number of events will be scheduled annually, and built upon, in support of the Allied Forces Foundation, Inc. Also, teams supporting the AFF will take part in third-party initiatives such as the annual Marine Corps Marathon.

The participation of the volunteer Allied Forces Foundation Pipes and Drums will be central to many of the Foundation's activities.

We welcome all volunteer initiatives and ideas that can generate support for the Allied Forces Foundation, Inc. and will be more than happy to discuss working together on such ideas as proposed.
