Thales Communications is a proud supporter of many foundations and charitable organizations that sustain our
country’s warfighters and first responders. Recent sponsorships include:
The Air Force Aid Society, the official charity of the United States Air Force, promotes the Air Force mission by helping to
relieve distress of Air Force members and their families and assisting them to finance their education. It is rooted in
the original Army Air Corps and the World War II Army Air Forces, whose members wanted to “take care of their own.” For more information, visit http://www.afas.org
The Coast Guard Foundation, founded in 1969, was initially created to provide funds for academic, athletic, and morale
needs of the Coast Guard Academy and its cadets which were not covered by federal operational funding. The
Foundation later expanded its charter to support projects that enhance the education, welfare, and morale of all Coast
Guard members and their families. For more information, visit http://coastguardfoundation.org
The Special Operations Warrior Foundation provides full scholarship grants and educational and family counseling to the
surviving children of special operations personnel who die in operational or training missions and immediate financial
assistance to severely-wounded special operations personnel and their families. For more information, visit http://www.specialops.org
The Marine Corps Association (MCA) Foundation oversees programs associated with events for Marines, awards, and acts
as the fundraising arm of the Marine Corps Association. MCA’s mission is to support the Marine Corps by disseminating
knowledge of military art and science among Marines; provide professional development opportunities for Marines; and
foster the spirit and preserve the traditions of Marines. For more information, visit http://mcafdn.org
The Marine Corps Scholarship Foundation provides scholarships for post-high school education to deserving sons and
daughters of Marines with particular attention given to children whose parent has been killed or wounded in action. It is

In existence for almost 15 years, the TACP Association was recently restructured and completely revamped to bring the
career-field closer together. With a team of 10 individuals all active or retired Tactical Air Control Party Members, they
are constantly working on projects to either raise funds or get the ROMADs together. For more information, visit http://usaftacp.com/about
