Marine Corps Marathon Semper Fi & America's Fund Team 2025

I'm proudly supporting Semper Fi & America's Fund as a Community Athlete for the 2025 Marine Corps Marathon Semper Fi & America's Fund Team for the 14th year in a row.  

Semper Fi & America’s Fund cares for our Nation’s critically wounded, ill, and injured service members, veterans, and military families. Supporting all branches of the U.S. Armed Forces, we provide one-on-one case management, connection, and lifetime support. Today. Tomorrow. Together.

I served in the Navy (Submarines) for ten years.  I'm continuing to serve others through my running for the Fund!

A few reasons to donate your dollars (shekels, clams, dough, you get the idea) to the Fund:

• They're trustworthy: Semper Fi & America’s Fund is A+ rated from CharityWatch — their highest rating.

• Their mission: Semper Fi & America’s Fund ensures our combat wounded, critically ill, and catastrophically injured U.S. service members and military families will achieve the highest possible quality of life and independence in a loving, caring, and committed community and will not be forgotten on their road to recovery and beyond.

• They're personal: Semper Fi & America’s Fund manages and operates diverse, comprehensive programs in the areas of Service Member and Family Support, Transition, and Integrative Wellness through a “needs-based” approach. All grants are delivered through a one-on-one case management relationship, the result of which is life-changing and lifesaving.

• They're effective: Semper Fi & America’s Fund employs a powerful holistic approach, integrating physical, mental, and emotional recovery through powerful therapies and innovative technologies, which most often leads to both healing and post-traumatic growth.

• There's an ongoing need: To date, Semper Fi & America’s Fund has given $500 million in vital and ongoing assistance to over 34,000 service members, veterans, and military families.

All donations ($10, $26.20, $50, whatever feels good) are welcome!  Thank you for supporting Semper Fi & America's Fund and for helping those who have sacrificed so much for our freedom!
