Winchester Ammunition Delivers Hope
Winchester celebrates its commitment to American freedom with the USA VALOR™ ammunition series. This limited-edition collection of military inspired ammunition is now available in 9mm, 5.56mm, and 12 gauge buck shot.
Every purchase of Winchester USA VALOR™ ammunition helps support Folds of Honor, a U.S. Veteran’s cause dedicated to honoring the sacrifice of America’s heroes, while giving hope to the bearers of their legacy in the form of educational scholarships.
“Winchester continues to demonstrate its commitment to the U.S. Military and veterans across the country with the launch of the USA VALOR limited edition ammunition,” said Matt Campbell, vice president of sales and marketing. “As the largest small-caliber ammunition enterprise in the world and provider to the U.S. Military, we are proud to be aligned with Folds of Honor and their mission.”
Folds of Honor is a nonprofit organization that provides educational scholarships to the spouses and children of military members who have fallen or been disabled while serving in the United States Armed Forces. Its educational scholarships support private school tuition or tutoring in grades K-12, as well as post-secondary tuition (two- or four-year college/university, technical or trade school). Since its inception in 2007, Folds of Honor has awarded more than 29,000 scholarships totaling more than $145 million in all 50 states. It was founded by Lt. Col. Dan Rooney, the only-ever F-16 fighter pilot and PGA Professional, who is currently stationed at Eglin AFB, Florida as a member of the 301st Fighter Squadron.
“Winchester has proudly supported our U.S. Warfighters for more than 100-years on battlefields around the world. We are thankful for the opportunity to take this one step further to support the families of these heroes, through our partnership with Folds of Honor,” said Winchester President Brett Flaugher.
From World War I through modern day deployments, Winchester remains steadfast in its support of U.S. Warfighters. In addition to supplying the U.S. Warfighter with the ammunition they depend upon, Winchester also generously supports military and veteran causes as a way to thank those who serve and to honor the memory of the fallen.
With that, Winchester Ammunition announced a $100,000 pledge to the Folds of Honor Foundation.
“We are so grateful for the patriots at Winchester and for the company’s generous support,” said Lt. Col. Dan Rooney, founder and CEO of Folds of Honor. “Winchester recognizes and addresses the needs of the military families that we serve. These students deserve our help and we’re thankful for Winchester’s commitment.”
