How to Donate to The Marine Corps Association Foundation

YOU can make a difference in a Marine's life with your donation to the Marine Corps Association Foundation, a 501(c)(3) public charity.*

Our Foundation Programs include: Marine Excellence Awards Program (over 8,670 Marines received awards from MCA in 2008 alone), the Commander's Professional Library Grants Program, sending copies of Leatherneck and the Marine Corps Gazette to Wounded Marines from Coast to Coast – and also provide them with memberships to MCA, along with the Commander's Forum Grants Program and many other programs that we receive requests to support, which the Corps cannot use appropiated funds to support.

Additional recognition for members and corporations may be available depending upon the amount of your donation. For more information on this, please call our Development Department at 703-640-0169. Thank you for your interest in supporting Marine Corps programs!

I wanted to take a moment and thank everyone at the association for sponsoring the Ground Awards Dinner on 3 June at the Crystal City Marriott. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and were tremendously pleased with the hospitality shown to us and the great accommodations. As well, I wanted to thank the association for the DVD of the event that was mailed to me. It is something that I will keep and treasure for the rest of my days. Again, thanks for everything.

Semper Fidelis!...
