Children of Fallen Patriots Foundation scholar Stephen B. is the son of U.S. Army Lieutenant Colonel Jon B. When asked he would describe his parent, Stephen says, “I would describe him as a father, husband, doctor, and soldier. Most notably, my father is my inspiration and my hero.”
With the help of Fallen Patriots, Stephen is a senior at Kent State University where he is studying Nursing. After he graduates with his BSN, he plans to work in the Nursing field for a few years and then pursue his doctorate in Nurse Anesthesia. Outside of class, Stephen serves on the worship team at Harvest Ridge Church in North Ridgeville, Ohio.
The vision of Children of Fallen Patriots Foundation is to ensure that every such child necessary college funding. Approximately 25,000 children have lost an active-duty parent during their term of military service. No centralized database exists of these families, and as a result, children who are eligible for our support can be missed. If you are a part of, or know of such a family, please reach out to us to see how we can support the need for educational funding.
