Enroll Your Child
Our programs and services are solely for the children who have lost an American military father or mother.
We also provide programs and services for the surviving spouses of our fallen.
Who is eligible?
ASC acknowledges all deaths during active duty and any deaths post military service, due to service-related injuries or illnesses. This includes suicides from PTSD related deaths. Our benefits are available to the children, 18 years of age and younger for our birthday celebrations and numerous camp opportunities throughout the year.
We also enroll young adults between 18 years of age and older for our leader mentorship program (PS23). ASC serves the children whose parent, from any branch of the military, lost his or her life while on active duty. We honor children of our fallen active duty reservist as well. All the children that were parented by the deceased parent prior to his or her death.
ASC would love to honor every single child eligible, however due to mounting shipping costs for our over-sized boxes we have limited our shipping to the Continental United States, Alaska, Hawaii and Puerto Rico. If you live outside of our shipping area, but want to be a part of our program, please provide a U.S. shipping address of a relative or friend and we are happy to ship your child’s box to that location. As always, we can NOT ship to a P.O. Box, only a physical address. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
NOTE: If the deceased parent died after active duty service, yet it was service related, please contact our office at 615 220-1600 and ask for Rachel Washabaugh (Programs and Services Coordinator) or email daryl@asoldierschild.org.
Who can refer a child?
The surviving parent or legal guardian may enroll an eligible child. What benefits does the child receive?
With humility as parents, we aim to keep the legacy of the soldiers alive by celebrating the birthday of his or her children. Recipients will receive a birthday box from ASC on each birthday through age 18. They will also have access to our mentorship programs and college scholarships.
