Support the Marine Corps League Foundation
A Marine family doesn’t plan for the moment everything goes sideways—a medical emergency, a sudden loss of income, or a natural disaster. But when it happens, they need help immediately… not weeks or months later.
That’s where the Marine Corps League Foundation steps in.
The Marine Corps League Foundation exists for a clear and critical mission: to support Marines, Marine veterans, and their families when they need it most. Through scholarships, humanitarian assistance, and disaster relief, the Foundation provides real help in real time—often when there is nowhere else to turn.
This work only happens because of support from the Marine Corps League community. Departments and Detachments have previously been asked to contribute at least $100 annually, and many have answered that call. But the reality is clear: the need continues to grow—and so must our response.
That’s why we are now asking individual League members to step forward through recurring monthly donations. This is the most reliable way to ensure that we can fully fund our meaningful scholarship and when a Marine or their family needs help, the Foundation is ready to act without hesitation.
Getting started is simple. Visit www.mclfoundation.org and click the Donate button. You can make a one-time gift—but a recurring monthly donation is where the real impact happens.
Just $10 or $15 a month—less than many spend on coffee—multiplied across our membership can fully fund our scholarship program and significantly expand our ability to respond to emergencies.
No one member carries the load alone—but together, we make sure no Marine family is left without support.
Coming Soon: Vehicle Donation Program
In the next few weeks, the Foundation will launch a vehicle donation program. Whether your vehicle is running or not, a nationwide partner will handle pickup, repairs if needed, and sale—with proceeds going directly to support our mission. This will be one of the simplest ways to make a meaningful contribution. Details will be available soon on our website.
The Foundation exists to take care of our own—but it only works if we all take part.
If you’ve been meaning to contribute, now is the time. To contribute to the Scholarship Fund, scan the QR code, or click on the following link. (Zeffy will default to an additional donation amount. To avoid that charge, just click on the dropdown box, select “Other”, then enter “0”).
