Western Pennsylvania Fallen Heroes Foundation

Western PA Families of Fallen Heroes Foundation - Created in 2004, the purpose of this fund is to provide charitable funds for the families of soldiers that have lost their lives in (Afghanistan or Iraq, including the parents of soldiers who might be excluded from government financial help. The foundation seeks to be of assistance long after the military's responsibility is exhausted. Aid is given to needy families ranging from help with utility bills, car repairs and medical expenses to providing funds for funeral related expenses like car rentals, motel rooms and flowers.

Funding also is used to set up special events so that families may be together The fund also provides personal bracelets with the rank, name, date of birth, date of death, and unit of the fallen hero for members of the immediate family. In an effort to allow families to relax and come to terms with their pain, the foundation also seeks donations of the use of property such as cabins or cottages where families can go to be alone. The foundation is comprised solely of families who have lost loved ones in Iraq and Afghanistan. The foundation would like to ask all

Americans to never forget the family and friends of those who lost their lives in the name of Freedom.
