The D-Day 80th Anniversary
Remember & Honor
The Fallen Heroes of WWI, WWII, Korean War & Vietnam War
Americans who fought, died, and are buried overseas made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedoms. Among our several programs, we engage today’s younger generations to learn the relevance of such sacrifice to their lives.
ABMF is the non-profit partner of the American Battle Monuments Commission. ABMC maintains all 26 American military cemeteries and 31 monuments overseas. Nearly 234,000 American soldiers, sailors, airmen and Marines are buried or memorialized (remains unidentified/missing) in hallowed sites away from the homeland.
“The willingness of America’s veterans to sacrifice for our country has earned them our lasting gratitude.”
- Jeff Miller
The American Battle Monuments Foundation has been assigned #77736 for eligible federal employees to donate through the Combined Federal Campaign (CFC.)
The Combined Federal Campaign is designed specifically for federal employees and retirees, active-duty military and veterans, federal contractors, and U.S. postal employees. It offers them an
opportunity to support non-profit organizations that have met the rigorous standards required of participating charities.
Approved charities must be a tax-exempt non-profit in existence for at least five years with financial records filed with the IRS, must be active in at least 20 American states and, for some, (as is the case of ABMF,) have an international presence. Specific information about the organization’s accounting, governance and program functions are disclosed.
Hosted by the U.S. Office of Personnel Management (OPM), the CFC is the world’s largest and most successful workplace giving campaign. Since its inception by President John F. Kennedy in 1961, the
CFC program has raised more than $8.7 billion in pledges to local, national, and international charities.
The 2024 “Give Happy” campaign begins after Labor Day and runs through January 15, 2025.
