AHFF's Mission
Our mission is to provide financial, educational, and other assistance directly, or through other charitable organizations, to active duty, retired, discharged, and reserve members of the United States Armed Services personnel, their family members, and survivors when they are in need. We receive and manage funds to support and administer humanitarian programs across all branches of the armed forces that will benefit those who have served us in our time of need.

Our vision is to manage a grassroots fund raising effort dedicated to the charitable support of U.
