About PHF
Since September 11, 2001, United States Marines have been on the front line in the Global War on Terror. Their bravery and dedication have had a price. Scores have been wounded, some seriously with many resulting in lifelong disabilities. They face extended hospital stays and months if not years of recovery and rehabilitation.
The Purple Heart Fund is a registered non-profit 501(c)(3) charity that was formed in 2004 to honor and assist Purple Heart Award recipients. The Fund seeks to provide recipients and their families with immediate financial assistance so that they can focus on their medical recovery and return to life with their families.
No injured Marine should ever agonize over providing for their
family during the critical time of restoring their health. The Purple Heart Fund will
relieve the devastating financial burden that robs these heroes of the dignity and
quality of life they deserve.
Few families are prepared to deal with the personal and financial disruption associated with leaving their home,their family, and their job to be with their loved one through long months of hospitalization, rehabilitation, and recuperation. The Purple Heart Fund provides immediate financial assistance to Marines injured in combat and in training and other service members injured while in direct support of Marine Corps units.
