Farrell/Monsters Team To Give Back
The mission of the Folds of Honor Foundation includes "giving back to the spouses and children of soldiers killed or disabled in service to our country through scholarships and other programs", according to the Foundation's website.
The website also states that "the unique scholarships awarded by the Folds of Honor Foundation are intended to offset the rising costs of post-secondary tuition and fees, textbooks, room and board, course-required tools, approved tutoring, and other school-related expenses. Scholarships can be used immediately, or can be held with the Foundation on behalf of young children until their time of enrollment."
"Once we learned of the Folds of Honor Foundation it was clear we wanted to do more to support our nation's heroes and establish a scholarship" said David J Farrell, President of Farrell Distributing. " Our partnership with the Vermont Lake Monsters provided a perfect vehicle to build awareness and raise money for these honorable families."
"It is an honor to team up with Farrell Distributing and the Folds of Honor Foundation to say thank you to those who have risked so much for us," said Lake Monsters General Manager, Nate Cloutier. "It is a nice feeling knowing that there are organizations out there that can help these families realize their dreams and put a smile on their face."
Interested individuals should complete and submit either an immediate or future-use application as appropriate, as well as satisfactory evidence that they qualify according to the existing eligibility requirements.
