"Honoring Their Sacrifice. Protecting Their Legacy"
Fallen Heroes Family Lifeline
Welcome
Fallen Heroes Family Lifeline is an extremely vital resource for military families suffering the ultimate loss. The military has too many limitations, outdated information and too many things they cannot help families with. Our organization was created out of first-hand experience and personal necessity. But, in seeking our own help, we quickly discovered countless other families who were struggling and suffering from the same lack of assistance. Heroes families who were caught between the cracks of government and organizational bureaucracies. People suffering in quiet desperation as they have been told they don't meet all the requirements for the help they need...or that the help is simply not available. That was simply NOT acceptable to us.
​
We started helping our fellow military families because we could not just stand by and do nothing. This is very personal to us. Our motivation is simply to bring balance and stability back to the families who have sacrificed everything for all of us. We have become the go-to referral source for many other larger organizations, for our ability to help those who may not fit neatly into the purview and guidelines other organizations may be limited to. We do not accept limitations. We cannot, when it comes to the families of our fallen heroes. We may not know them all but we do OWE them all.
Our origin story is similar to all of those we wish to help and protect. One of loss
and with literally EVERYTHING going wrong, after. In our own struggles, we ended
up finding answers to help dozens of other families. We discovered a calling to do
more. Fallen Heroes Family Lifeline is dedicated to protecting ALL of our
extended military family to the best of our abilities.

“Honestly, I was ready to give up. You wouldn't let me. Thank you for saving more than just my home. ”
Planned Events
Feb 1, 2026 - May 31, 2026 "Protecting Their Legacy Tour" - National Fundraising Travel
IT'S TIME TO EXPAND! After nearly doubling the number of families we provide assistance to, each year for 6 years, it is time to do more. Fallen Heroes Family Lifeline is starting 2026 by touring the United States. It's something we wanted to do very early on but Covid got in the way of. By the time it cleared up we were simply too busy. But now, we have reached a point where we MUST expand, to keep up with the increasing number of families needing our help.
​​​
One of our original donor-partner organizations believes so much in our work that they have provided an RV for our plans. The plans are simple. We're going to travel and get to know the people we work with better. This includes visiting military communities, support groups and families, many of the partner-organizations who refer hundreds of families to us, a few politicians we have been talking with in the last few years, new potential corporate donors, and more. This involves fundraising, of course, but we also want to use everyone's input to improve everything we do, as we grow and expand. We owe it to them to do the best job possible.
WE NEED YOUR HELP! The largest cost of this is already covered. But, we still need funds for: "Fuel, Tolls, Starlink Internet, Drone & Camera, and Branded Promotional Materials & Giveaways". The less we have to pay out of pocket, the better.​ This travel is vital to expanding our budget, building a bigger and more effective team, and building our new social media channels. You'll be able to share in our progress as we do podcast and radio interviews, livestreams and post video clips, every step of the way. Be the difference. Let's do this together. Donate today!

Mar 15, 2025 | --- "Heroes Legacy Scholarship Fund" - Creation & Fundraising
(Ongoing Project)
This scholarship fund is unlike most others! Fallen Heroes Family Lifeline is creating a special fund to help fill the gap of need for continued education. This will be available for surviving spouse, children and siblings of our fallen heroes. The majority of similar scholarship programs provide a one time amount of $1000-1500, available at a select few, specific colleges. That is where they stop. The Heroes Legacy Scholarship will be available to qualified individuals (basic qualifiers) for their choice of Trade Schools, as well as 2 and 4 year Colleges/Universities. As long as they are enrolled and completing each year, they will receive renewal until they have completed (max of 4 years). We are working with corporate sponsors who may also be providing some necessary supplies for each recipient. Help us to help others with the gift of a great education!
Jun 21, 2026 | 08:00 AM "Heroes Legacy 5k Walk & Run" - Community Fundraising Event
Walk, run, skip, hop or just show up and help out! Bring your friends, family, children, neighbors, coworkers and whoever you can get. This will not be your typical 5k event. There will be Entertainment, Games, Give-Away's, Food, Military Friends & Family, as well as other organizations that work with us in our unified cause.
​​
More information will be posted May 1st. Registration begins May 15th. All proceeds go to helping surviving military families in need, our Legacy Scholarship Programs and things that truly make a difference to those who have sacrificed the most for all of us. Help us show our love and appreciation.

2024 - 2028 | --- "Heroes Legacy Campground" - Long Term Healing Project
(Ongoing Project)
This project is a big one and one of the most important! Fallen Heroes Family Lifeline is making preparations to create and build an EXCLUSIVE campground retreat for Goldstar Families, Veterans and their Families. A place where they can truly get away and heal in nature, either with support groups or individually. The goal is to give individuals and families a place they can enjoy the land and nature - hiking, biking, trail rides, fishing, camping, trail rides, zip lines and more - without crowds of people who can't understand what they have been through. This vitally needed retreat needs more corporate and private partners.
