The mission of the Marine Corps-Law Enforcement Foundation is to encourage the spiritual, moral, intellectual and physical development of children through education. This Foundation was formed in February of 1995 by former Marines and law enforcement personnel who strongly believe that our nations most precious resource is its youth.

Through the continuous support of individual donors, the Marine Corps-Law Enforcement Foundation has distributed aid with a value of more than $25 million to eligible children. This assistance was primarily rendered to children of Marines or Federal law enforcement personnel who were killed on duty or died under extraordinary circumstances while serving our country at home or abroad. These funds enable the Foundation to provide these children with scholarships for their higher education. When a child of a United States Marine is afflicted with a physical or mental disability and requires special medical equipment or tutoring, the Foundation may grant financial assistance to that family if their personal insurance does not cover the complete cost of treatment for this child.
