Massachusetts Soldiers Legacy Fund

When I heard about the Massachusetts Soldiers Legacy Fund on my local talk show radio station I thought, “now this is brilliant”. You should too.

Whether you think the war in Iraq is a movement to save the free world or you think it’s about the dumbest foreign policy choice we’ve made in the past 30 years is immaterial. Our soldiers, both men and women, went to Iraq and Afghanistan because they were told to go. They did not have any choice. So they are there fulfilling a mission that I have to believe in some way makes us safer here in the United States.

And, as a result of this, some of them have died. And they died in service to our country. So here’s a way to help out some of their kids. It’s a good thing. Here’s who they are in their own words:

The Massachusetts Soldiers Legacy Fund is the first statewide public charity for fallen military heroes. There are hundreds of servicemen and women from Massachusetts currently deployed in combat operations in either Iraq or Afghanistan. Of these brave young men and women, many have made the ultimate sacrifice for our country.

The Massachusetts Soldiers Legacy Fund hopes to honor the sacrifice of Massachusetts servicemen and women who have died in combat by supporting their surviving children in all future educational endeavors. The MSL Fund supports the children of Massachusetts fallen heroes from all service branches: Army, Marine Corps, Navy, Air Force, and Coast Guard.
