Dear Friends,
We hope that you and your families are staying safe and healthy during these challenging times. America’s strength has always been its people and ideals and we are confident they will see us through this crisis as they have in the past.
We are grateful that your steadfast support allows us to continue to serve our scholars even as our team works remotely. Now, more than ever, students are facing uncertainty about what the future holds. While most of our students have transitioned to online learning, many have lost their part-time income (as have many of their parents) and have been displaced from their dorms, facing additional expenses to relocate. This has created a need greater than the normal tuition, books and living expenses. We are taking all necessary steps to do all we can to alleviate their fears and worries during this time of uncertainty. Your support will allow Fallen Patriots to continue our mission and be there for our students during this crisis.
Additionally, in light of the current situation, we have rescheduled our 2nd Annual New York City Gala to September 10, 2020 at Cipriani 42nd Street. Our Galas are an extremely important part of our funding – your generosity at last year’s NYC event raised over $3 million which equates to 375 years of college for our students. We are grateful for the many reservations which have already been made for the event and we will roll those forward to the September event.
Sponsorships, tables, and tickets will remain on sale and available at donate.fallenpatriots.org/NYCGala.
We hope you will join us in celebrating our students on September 10, 2020. Until then, please stay safe and healthy and know that we are honored and grateful for your partnership and support.
Sincerely,
Cynthia & David Kim
Co-founders
