BENEFITING THE SEMPER FI FUND

100% of the proceeds benefit the Semper Fi Fund, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that provides immediate financial assistance and lifetime support to post 9/11 wounded, critically ill and injured members of all branches of the U.S. Armed Forces, and their families, ensuring that they have the resources they need during their recovery and transition back to their communities. 94 cents of every dollar that the Semper Fi Fund receives goes directly to our wounded warriors.
