NHDF Announces Grants of $48,800

The National Homeland Defense Foundation (NHDF)  announced that it has made grants of $48,800 to various military programs in Colorado through the Homeland Defender’s Fund™ that the Foundation administers. 

Programs receiving grants at Ft. Carson include rehabilitation for wounded warriors, family programs on marriage counseling, domestic violence seminars, and support for the Fallen Heroes Center and the Family Readiness Center.  The Colorado National Guard was awarded a grant to support child care programs, and the US Air Force Academy received a grant for their Airman and Family Readiness Center program.

“We are grateful to the many citizens of our community who have so generously donated to the Fund that allows support of these very worthy programs for our military members and their families.  The State of Colorado continues to be very supportive of our men and women in service to our nation,” said Don Addy, President of NHDF.

The Homeland Defender’s Fund is a charitable non-profit fund that receives donations from citizens and corporations who want to support military programs.   Donations and gifts to the fund are combined with others and then contributed to various support programs at Colorado military installations.  For more information on how to contribute, click on www.thehdfund.org or call 719-577-7417.
