The Coast Guard Foundation tackles the toughest challenges confronting our heroes. We strengthen the Coast Guard community and service by being there for members and their families, where and when they need it the most. Prioritize Health and Wellness One of the most challenging aspects of life in the Coast Guard is balancing responsibilities of family and duty. Because of these challenges, we support units and families around the country in various ways. Focus on Family Resilience During difficult times we are reminded of the stark danger that Coast Guard personnel face on a daily basis, and the sacrifice these brave individuals are willing to make for their country. Community Building A sense of community is powerful for members and families, as Coast Guard deployments can be remote and isolating. The Coast Guard Foundation creates and celebrates communal bonds so that our heroes always feel supported. Empower Academy Cadets Our support to the Coast Guard Academy assists with the academic enrichment, leadership development, and athletic programs for the Coast Guard's future leaders. Support Auxiliary and Reserve Members Annually, we grant scholarships to Coast Guard Reserve families, and provide support to Auxiliary flotillas around the country to support their many missions.
