As Americans celebrated Independence Day recently, Rinnai America Corporation encouraged support for Folds of Honor, a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing educational scholarships to the spouses and children of America’s fallen and disabled service members and first responders.
Founded in 2007 by Lt. Col. Dan Rooney, Folds of Honor has become one of the nation’s leading nonprofit organizations dedicated to honoring sacrifice through education. By providing life-changing educational scholarships, the organization helps ensure the families of America’s heroes have access to opportunities that can positively impact generations to come.
Since partnering with Folds of Honor in 2018, Rinnai has contributed nearly $600,000 to the organization, helping provide 118 educational scholarships for military families nationwide. Scholarships funded by Rinnai are prioritized to recipients planning to attend a trade or vocational school in an effort to also assist with the growing shortage of skilled labor in the U.S.
“I’m grateful to the outstanding and patriotic team at Rinnai for the longtime support of Folds of Honor and our recipients,” Rooney says. “Rinnai understands the importance of an education, and is committed to making a positive impact. The generosity of Rinnai and its customers directly help the spouses and children of American heroes, and demonstrate to these families that their sacrifice and loved ones are not forgotten.”
“What makes Folds of Honor so special is its focus on the families at the heart of its mission,” says Frank Windsor, president of Rinnai America Corporation. “Its reach extends far beyond scholarships and reflects Rinnai’s commitment to creating a healthier way of living.”
