The Florida National Guard Foundation formed in 1983 as a 501(c)3 Non-Profit Organization to protect the history of the Florida National Guard and to administer a scholarship program developed by the Florida National Guard Association of Florida. After 9-11, the focus of the Foundation shifted to providing financial assistance to the soldiers and airmen of the Florida National Guard and their families. In 2003 the Foundation became a Direct Support Organization to the Florida Department of Military Affairs as provided by Florida Statutes, Chapter 250.115 to administer the Soldiers and Airman Relief Fund. The Foundation is organized and operated exclusively to raise funds; request and receive grants, gifts, bequests of moneys; acquire, receive, hold, invest and administer in its own name securities, funds or property and make expenditures to or for the direct or indirect benefit of the Florida National Guard. Because the Foundation is a Direct Support Organization to the Department of Military Affairs, the foundation pays no salaries. This allows more funds to be placed in the hands of those Soldiers and Airmen that need financial assistance while serving our state and nation
