For every Mercedes-Benz vehicle sold in the U.S. this year, the company will make a donation to the Johnny Mac Soldiers Fund, which helps provide eligible military children with college scholarships and other college assistance.
Time and again, America’s military members and their families are asked to give of themselves for the rest of us. While they ask little in return, we owe them so much.
Mercedes-Benz USA Dealers are honoring fallen members of the U.S. Armed Forces by lifting their children up.
Col. John McHugh, a member of the U.S. Army for 24 years, was killed in action on May 18, 2010, in Kabul, Afghanistan. His fellow West Point classmates then joined together to ensure that his five children would receive a college education. In 2014, that effort grew into the Johnny Mac Soldiers Fund.
To date, the Johnny Mac Soldiers Fund has awarded over 2,000 scholarships totaling $16 million, and growing.
In May of 2010 Colonel John McHugh was killed in action in Afghanistan. He had served his country for 24 years and he left behind five children.
So a few of his former West Point classmates got together to make sure that all five children received a college education. It started out as a couple of classmates just wanting to look after his children to make sure they were taken care of, and then it snowballed into the Johnny Mac Soldiers Fund.
As one of Johnny Mac’s classmates said; “That volunteer force needs to know that when they raise their right hand and swear to support and defend the constitution of the United States, they need to know that there’s a bunch of us out here who have their back”.
Since 9/11 more than 5,000 children have lost a parent serving in the military. These children, and thousands more like them, have given up so much. If we can give them an education, it’s the least we can do.
Mercedes-Benz and its dealers are proud partners of the Johnny Mac Soldiers Fund. For every Mercedes-Benz vehicle sold in the United States this year, a donation is being made to the Johnny Mac Soldiers Fund.
Since 2014, with the help of Mercedes-Benz and their dealers, the Johnny Mac Soldiers Fund has provided over 2,000 scholarships totaling 16 million dollars and growing. Together we are honoring the fallen by lifting their children up.
