Video Highlights

 

 

Friday, August 19, 2022, for the Honoring Heroes Charity Golf Tournament at Angel Park Golf Club, Las Vegas, Mountain Course. 

It's going to be a fun day of golf, prizes, contest, and raffles including food and beverages.  One of the many Featured Auction Items will be an opportunity for a chance to bid on a Tandem Skydive with Children of Fallen Heroes, Parachute Team. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to say that you jumped into the metropolitan area of Las Vegas for next year's 2nd Annual Golf Honoring Heroes Golf Tournament in 2023. (golf course TBD, this a unique because there are no tandem jump in the metropolitan area, you normally have to jump 1 hour outside of the city limits)

Mission Statement

Children of Fallen Heroes provides retreats, education, and special programs to children and families of fallen military and first responders designed to create an escape from grief, helping them to survive and thrive in spite of their loss.

 

Vision Statement

Children of Fallen Heroes seeks to increase public awareness and appreciation of the sacrifice of fallen military and first responder heroes as well as the sacrifice and needs of their loved ones, through an increasing range of healing educational and recreational activities.

 

​Statement of Need

Child survivors of fallen military and first responders experience complicated grief, involving not merely the loss of a parent, but also the loss of a hero, and the loss of their familiar sense of belonging within a community. Participation in skill-building activities with others who have experienced similar losses is beneficial to the healing process. Research shows that children of fallen heroes who participate in peer support activities experience an increased sense of hope, positive role-modeling, and greater trust, understanding, and empathy.
