The Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund is a leader in supporting the men and

women of the Armed Forces and their families. Begun in 2000 under the

auspices of the Intrepid Museum Foundation, and established as an independent

 not-for-profit organization in 2003, the Fund has provided more than $65 million

 in support for the families of military personnel lost in service to our nation,

and for severely wounded military personnel and veterans. These efforts

are funded entirely with donations from the public, and hundreds of

thousands of individuals have contributed to the Fund. 100% of

contributions raised by the Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund go towards these

programs; the Fund does not deduct any portion of contributions for

administrative costs; all costs are paid by the Fund’s Board of Trustees

 and from interest earned on invested funds.
