| Ways
To Help
Want to do something to help the families or deployed service
members? Whether it's sending packages overseas, sending messages
of support, making purchases where part of your proceeds help
the families nothing is too small when you consider the sacrifices
made daily by our wonderful military service members and their
families. Take a look at the examples of how others find ways
to support our troops and please remember to thank all those
in uniform for their guarantee of our families continued freedom
and the freedom of others!

The time of those that organized, worked at, donated to, and
attended were all appreciated. It is only by their generosity
and dedication that we at CFSRF are able to continue to support
our troops.
The CFSRF has students whose parent died tragically after
returning home from serving overseas in an automobile or motorcycle
accident and others who died as a result of terminal illnesses,
diseases and other conditions or ailments who are struggling
to attend College and other families whose children are suffering
from other financial hardships after a non-hostile loss
of a parent. We are doing what we can to help these by including
them in our Scholarships program. Unfortunately we have had
to turn these young deserving students down, but encourage them
to reapply to the surviving college scholarship program. For
other families that are need of financial assistance we will
do what we can to continue to help under the ADOPT A FAMILY
program, that has limited funding. If you are interested in
helping the children who are outside of our mission and programs,
please indicate ADOPT A FAMILY on your donation so that we can
help our service member's children. Those that served in Afghanistan
or Iraq, however, did not sustain a severe disability or loss
of life a result of their service have children who need our
help as well. We presently have less than $1,000.00 remaining
in this special program and several children that we'll have
to turn away if our funds remain at this amount. If you are
a business or Corporate partner who is willing to allocate some
of your previous contributions to these children, please email
us.
FOR THOSE WHO WOULD STILL LIKE TO HELP, PLEASE DONATE ONLINE
or BY CHECK AND IN THE MESSAGE LINE INDICATE ADOPT A FAMILY
100% OF YOUR DONATION WILL HELP THESE WELL DESERVING CHILDREN.
