Children of Fallen Patriots Foundation

Children of Fallen Patriots Foundation Scholarship

The Children of Fallen Patriots Foundation provides college scholarships and educational counseling to military children who have lost a parent in the line of duty. The scholarship covers a broad range of educational expenses including tuition and fees, books, supplies, living expenses, a $500 pre-college stipend for high school juniors and seniors, and a one-time $1,650 computer stipend. After graduation, the foundation may also reimburse eligible student loans and out-of-pocket tuition expenses. The program serves dependent children from all branches of the U.S. Armed Forces (Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, Coast Guard, or Space Force) and all components (active, reserve, and guard), covering both combat and peacetime casualties. The scholarship supports students attending four-year colleges and universities, community colleges, trade schools, and vocational programs. Beyond financial support, the foundation offers career seminars hosted by corporate partners where executives share professional insights, as well as internship and full-time job placement opportunities. Scholarship administrators are Gold Star family members and former scholarship recipients themselves, providing personalized care and compassion to students.
