Children of Fallen Patriots Foundation honors the history and culture of all Americans. In honor of Black History Month, it is time to celebrate the achievements and selfless acts of our African American compatriots.
Children of Fallen Patriots Foundation honors the selfless acts that our fallen patriots and their families have practiced. Soldiers that have died in the line of duty acted on the ultimate selfless act, sacrificing their lives for our continued freedom. A day to honor selfless acts is known as Four Chaplains Day, celebrated on February 3rd.
February is a time to celebrate eternal love. When a soldier sacrifices their life, they are doing it for the love of their country. Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful and endures through every circumstance.
