Scholarship fund: Freedom Alliance provides college scholarships to students who are dependents of u.s. military personnel who have been killed or permanently disabled in a combat mission or a training accident. Our scholarships are awarded to help the sons and daughters of american heroes achieve a college education and to honor service members who have sacrificed life or limb for our nation. During 2023, Freedom Alliance awarded scholarships to 686 students, issuing a total of $2,617,029 in scholarships.
