MEETING SACRIFICE WITH HOPE.
Folds of Honor provides life-changing educational scholarships to the spouses and children of America’s fallen or disabled military service members and first responders. The call is powerful. The mission is simple:
HONOR THEIR SACRIFICE. EDUCATE THEIR LEGACY. UNITE AMERICANS AROUND ALL THOSE WHO SERVE.
It began with Lt Col Dan Rooney’s flight home from his second tour of duty in Iraq. An F-16 fighter pilot in the Oklahoma Air National Guard, he became painfully aware of the realities families face when a loved one in uniform is fallen or disabled while protecting our great country.
When the flight landed, he witnessed the remains of an American hero be returned to his family. Lt Col Rooney watched as the Corporal’s twin brother walked somberly alongside the flag-draped casket to meet his family on the tarmac. Among them was the deceased Corporal’s young son.
Since that moment, Lt Col Rooney has been committed to rallying patriotic Americans and meeting sacrifice with hope through Folds of Honor. On our watch, those who protect our freedoms and our families will know they are not forgotten.
We the people have found what unites us. It’s our honor to empower people from every walk of life through education and the opportunities it creates. Forty-five percent of Folds of Honor scholarships are awarded to minorities, making our recipient family as diverse as the country we call home.

IN THE FOLDED FLAG WE SEE THE HEAVY PRICE OF FREEDOM
Yet it’s also a symbol of hope, representing the enduring ideals that make this country a beacon of democracy. We chose this logo because it reflects our mission – to honor the sacrifice of America’s heroes, while giving hope to the bearers of their legacy.
Folds of Honor has grown from a vision into a movement. This folded flag is a constant reminder of those who have paid the ultimate price for our freedom. It inspires us to help equip and educate their loved ones in need of our support. Thank you for embracing the call.
