Wings ready. Formation set. 🦅🚁

💛 Behind Every Service Member is a Strong Community

The AFCF Grants Fund supports programs that touch the lives of military families—helping with education, wellness, and career opportunities. Every grant tells a story of resilience, hope, and opportunity for those who serve.

By supporting AFCF, you’re giving back to the heroes who give so much for us. Together, we strengthen families and build a stronger community. In 2025 AFCF was able to provide about $8,000 grants and support to area organizations

Meet Daniel.

When he first heard about our beekeeping program through the Soldier Recovery Unit, he was skeptical. Bee stings hurt, right? (He laughs about it now.)

But something shifted when he got into the hive.

"Beekeeping is engaging. It calms my mind and makes me focus on something other than the stresses of the mind and day," Daniel shares. "I ended up building new friendships, discovering more about myself and the bees. Plus, when you have your own hive, you can get honey! Who doesn't love honey?"

That's what Valor Honey is really about—it's not just about the product. It's about finding purpose, building community, and healing through meaningful work.

Daniel's story is one of many. If you're a veteran looking for something real, something that matters, we'd love to meet you.
