The Callen Foundation, is an IRS approved 501(c)3 non-profit corporation.  The purpose of our foundation is to raise money for the families of Ohio active duty military families. These families are in need of daily subsistence items such as food, clothing, baby items, utility payments and basic repairs. Our ultimate focus will be on helping those families in Ohio. All recepeints are vetted by our policy of only accepting requests from those individuals that are referred from the Ohio National Guard's Family Assistance Centers. 

Everyone wants to support the troops. There are plenty of bumper stickers, ribbons and signs promoting support for the troops. But in reality the real support they need is financial. Most are paid little to begin with so raising a family is especially difficult. There are national programs that help with big items like mortgage payments and trips to visit injured troops in hospitals. As we are a small foundation our mission is to try and help with the little things to help these struggling Ohio active duty military families get what they need as soon as possible. 

Thank you for your support
