Fort Liberty, NC - [16 May, 2024] - America’s Champions Foundation (ACF) has extended a compassionate grant to Andy, an active duty service member stationed at Fort Liberty, North Carolina, who recently faced the heartbreaking loss of his son in a tragic vehicle accident. "Losing my son was something I never imagined going through. It has been a tough time for our family and we are grateful for the support of America’s Champions Foundation," said Andy. The emotional and financial burdens associated with such a devastating event have been further complicated by Andy’s military service, which has placed his family far from their immediate support network. To facilitate the presence of his family during this difficult period, Andy has had to arrange housing and flights for relatives traveling from as far away as Africa and Germany. Stephen, CEO of America’s Champions Foundation, expressed his heartfelt condolences, stating, "When I learned about this incident, I immediately knew that this was exactly the kind of situation ACF was founded for. Our deepest condolences go out to the family and we wish them happiness in abundance as they heal from this tragedy that no parent should ever have to face."
