In honour of the Month of the Military Child, the Children of Fallen Patriots Foundation has shown gratitude to Goldman Sachs executives for partnering with the organisation to use the Goldman Sachs Gives (GS Gives) programme to give military families unique opportunities and steadfast support.
With the help of the GS Gives programme, more than sixty Goldman Sachs executives have linked their individual contributions to the Children of Fallen Patriots Foundation, supporting the latter’s efforts to provide college scholarships and guidance on education to children of fallen military personnel.
Nearly $1.7m has been raised for Gold Star scholar support due to the commitment of industry veterans and Goldman Sachs’ charitable matching programme.
This funding has enabled 270 years of college study and generated an estimated $27m in societal effect.
David Kim, co-founder of Children of Fallen Patriots Foundation stated: “The significance of the partnership between Goldman Sachs executives and Children of Fallen Patriots Foundation extends far beyond monetary contributions. It embodies the core values of compassion, generosity, and commitment to service to our military veterans that define it. We are extremely grateful for the dedication and impact this program has had on our Gold Star scholars.”
Goldman Sachs executives’ scholarships have provided an avenue of opportunity for military families, allowing them to pursue further studies and aspire for a better future.
