The Injured Marine Semper Fi Fund

has helped Marines, Sailors, Soldiers and their families The Injured Marine Semper Fi Fund has helped Marines, Sailors, Soldiers and their families cope with the unexpected financial hardship that occurs when family members drop everything to be at the bedside of their injured or critically ill loved one. 

The Need

When Marines, Sailors, and other military personnel assigned to Marine Forces, are injured or critically ill, their entire family shares the pain and burden of recovery. Normal life is put on hold, often times for weeks, months, or years, as loved ones travel great distances, at a moment’s notice, and stay at the bedside. They take leave from their jobs, often without pay, and incur additional expenses for childcare, lodging, travel, specialized equipment, and other necessities. Few families are prepared for the expenses they face. They need help, and they need it quickly. The Injured Marine Semper Fi Fund was created to meet this need.

 Mission

The Injured Marine Semper Fi Fund provides financial assistance and quality of life solutions for Marines, Sailors and other military personnel assigned to Marine Forces, injured in post 9-11 combat, training, or with life threatening illnesses, and their families. Our fund provides relief for immediate financial needs that arise during hospitalization and recovery as well as perpetuating needs such as home modifications, customized transportation and specialized equipment.

Established in May 2004, the Injured Marine Semper Fi Fund is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization that has provided over 17,000 grants totaling over $34 million in assistance to our Nation's wounded and critically ill heroes and their families. Since our inception, our administrative and fundraising costs have averaged at 8%, well below the national average, and our fundraising expenses have averaged just 2 cents per dollar raised.
