Children of Fallen Patriots Foundation is seeking applicants for college scholarships for 2017.
The awards will be presented to children who have lost a parent in active military service, including combat casualties, military training accidents, service-related illnesses, suicide and other duty-related deaths as ruled by the Department of Veterans Affairs.
More than 97 percent of those killed in action are men, often leaving behind a family suffering through the ultimate sacrifice.
Since 2002, the organization has provided more than $15 million in college expense assistance to more than 600 motivated students for their undergraduate studies.
