About Folds of Honor
Published by Folds of Honor on their own website. Quoted here in full as they wrote it.
MEETING SACRIFICE WITH HOPE.
Folds of Honor provides life-changing educational scholarships to the spouses and children of America’s fallen or disabled military service members and first responders. The call is powerful. The mission is simple:
HONOR THEIR SACRIFICE. EDUCATE THEIR LEGACY. UNITE AMERICANS AROUND ALL THOSE WHO SERVE.
It began with Lt Col Dan Rooney’s flight home from his second tour of duty in Iraq. An F-16 fighter pilot in the Oklahoma Air National Guard, he became painfully aware of the realities families face when a loved one in uniform is fallen or disabled while protecting our great country.
When the flight landed, he witnessed the remains of an American hero be returned to his family. Lt Col Rooney watched as the Corporal’s twin brother walked somberly alongside the flag-draped casket to meet his family on the tarmac. Among them was the deceased Corporal’s young son.
Since that moment, Lt Col Rooney has been committed to rallying patriotic Americans and meeting sacrifice with hope through Folds of Honor. On our watch, those who protect our freedoms and our families will know they are not forgotten.
We the people have found what unites us. It’s our honor to empower people from every walk of life through education and the opportunities it creates. Forty-five percent of Folds of Honor scholarships are awarded to minorities, making our recipient family as diverse as the country we call home.

IN THE FOLDED FLAG WE SEE THE HEAVY PRICE OF FREEDOM
Yet it’s also a symbol of hope, representing the enduring ideals that make this country a beacon of democracy. We chose this logo because it reflects our mission – to honor the sacrifice of America’s heroes, while giving hope to the bearers of their legacy.
Folds of Honor has grown from a vision into a movement. This folded flag is a constant reminder of those who have paid the ultimate price for our freedom. It inspires us to help equip and educate their loved ones in need of our support. Thank you for embracing the call.
Our Families
They are a sobering reminder of the high cost of freedom, and proof that courage and determination have the power to unlock a brighter future.
Our team of experienced leaders are unapologetically patriotic and determined to work diligently on behalf of the families we serve.
Our write-up
Folds of Honor is in our directory because we went looking for resources in this category and confirmed theirs is real and serving this community. What you see above is their own description, quoted from their site. We have not yet added our own write-up — the programs, eligibility and military fit that we check ourselves — and we would rather leave that blank than guess at it.
In the meantime, their official site is the authority: foldsofhonor.org

Are you Folds of Honor?
This page was written about you, not by you. We built it because the people we serve were already looking for you and deserved a straight answer about what you do. If anything here is wrong, out of date, or puts it badly, we would rather hear it from you than leave it up.
Claiming it gives you an account here and a route to request changes — corrections, new programs, updated events. Those requests are handled by Meridian Tech, our partner, under their subscription service. You are not editing this page yourself, and we would rather say that plainly now than have you find out after you sign up.
“Claim this page” opens a checkout on milconnect.com, where you set up your organization's account. Being listed here is free, and staying listed is free. Meridian Tech — the company that also builds and runs MILCONNECT.AI — provides the account and the update service, and the AI Workspace is their paid product. We are telling you about a commercial relationship before you act on it rather than after, because you are a nonprofit being asked to spend money and you deserve to see the whole shape of it first. If anything on this page is simply wrong, email us and we will fix it for free; that never requires a subscription.
This page is maintained by MILCONNECT.AI and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or authored by Folds of Honor. It is a directory entry compiled from community recommendations. We do not rate, rank or endorse anything in this directory, and being listed here is not a recommendation — clinical or otherwise. We are not a medical provider and cannot tell you whether a program is right for you. Check eligibility, cost and current status with the organization directly before you rely on it.
