Folds of Honor
FOLDS OF HONOR
Folds of Honor is a non-profit that helps families of soldiers who have been killed or injured in the line of duty and was founded in 2007 by Major Dan Rooney, a former F-16 pilot who served three tours in Iraq. This foundation was started to give back to spouses, children, and loved ones of soldiers killed or disabled while serving our country. Folds of Honor seeks to meet this need by providing annual educational scholarships to the military families of those who have been killed or disabled while on active duty.
Each season, the Kent State men's and women's golf programs honor a fallen soldier by putting their name on a Folds of Honor golf bag and a second bag is donated to the soldier's family. At the end of the season, the bag is auctioned off and the money donated to the Folds of Honor Scholarship Fund.
