From supporting fundraising initiatives to event sponsorships, a big part of our mission is to give back to the communities that have welcomed us.
Anchorage, Alaska – The Alaska USA Foundation is committed to supporting organizations that help provide much needed services in the communities we serve. For more than 17 years, the Foundation has been supporting nonprofits focused on helping children, veterans, and active-duty military personnel and their families.
Recently, the Alaska USA Foundation donated $15,000 to Big Brothers Big Sisters of Alaska in support of their military program. This program provides support to children of military families, working to pair a member of the military or a veteran with a military child. This provides a level of understanding and some added compassion, along with a much-needed adult mentor. Children of military families are often dealing with frequent changes to their family life as well as potential separation, loss, or just added day-to-day stress.
“The Alaska USA Foundation is a long-time supporter of Big Brothers Big Sisters of Alaska,” said Dan McCue, Executive Director, Alaska USA Foundation. “The military program does a great job of providing an incredibly valuable service to military families and, in particular, military children. Additionally, it allows for service men and women as well as veterans to give back to their own community.”
