Injured Marine Semper Fi Fund

The Injured Marine Semper Fi Fund was brought to our attention by Lt.Col.Kevin Gordon (retired) who is working with other retired Marines within his current business organization to raise awareness and help create a donation stream for IMSFF. The IMSFF relies on your generosity for support. Your donations are used to help provide the much needed financial assistance for the injured Marines, Sailors and their families. When a Marine or Sailor is injured, the entire family shares the burden. Lost wages, continued hospitalizations, rehabilitation, separation from family, travel & lodging, and helping the injured Marine or Sailor recover while trying to meet financial and other obligations at home add to that burden.
The Surfrider Foundation

The Surfrider Foundation is a non-profit grassroots organization dedicated to the protection and enjoyment of our world’s oceans, waves and beaches. Founded in 1984 by a handful of visionary surfers in Malibu, California, the Surfrider Foundation now maintains over 50,000 members and 90

Alpha Project for the homeless was founded in 1986 originally offering work opportunities to homeless men.  Since that time it has grown and operates dozens of programs across 3 southern California counties.  They are a lean organization that depends upon donations from a variety of sources to keep their programs going.  To find out more about this organization, click on the URL above.  They have achieved many, many accomplishments over the past several years.


 

Mama's Kitchen was founded in 1990 when volunteers from the AIDS Assistance Fund discovered that people with AIDS were dying from the complications of malnutrition long before their immune systems were overcome by AIDS-related infections. They realized that a home meal delivery service was needed for low-income people who were too ill, isolated or emotionally devastated to help themselves. Thus, Mamas Kitchen began delivering nourishing meals to the homes of impoverished residents of San Diego County who were affected by AIDS and HIV.
