Everywhere our troops and diplomats need help, Spirit of America is there making a difference
My first grandchild was born a year ago. I love him more than I can say. I want him to be able to live a free, prosperous, and secure life. I want that for all Americans.
That is why I served 42 years as a United States Marine. It is why I support Spirit of America.
With the challenges and troubles in the world today, it’s more important than ever to commit ourselves to America’s values. Our values are our greatest strength and the foundation of our security. Spirit of America is a powerful expression of America’s values.
“I have seen Spirit of America in action for 19 years. Everywhere our troops and diplomats need help, Spirit of America is there making a difference – a difference that shows America at our best, a force for good.”
General Joseph F. Dunford Jr.
In my military career I led Marines in combat in Iraq, commanded all US and coalition forces in Afghanistan, and served as Commandant of the Marine Corps. I retired in 2019 after four years as the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the nation’s highest-ranking military officer.

Like you, I have seen the unspeakable horrors of Russia’s war against Ukraine. Spirit of America is at the front lines doing something about it. By providing protective aid to Ukraine’s soldiers and civilian volunteers, Spirit of America is saving lives and stopping the suffering at its source. Among many other things this year, Spirit of America worked with the US Embassy and funded a school in Tajikistan for Afghan boys and girls who had escaped the Taliban, keeping alive their dreams of a free and better life. In Mozambique, Spirit of America has provided jobs to rebuild schools and civic buildings that were destroyed by ISIS fighters. The progress and momentum are helping prevent a resurgence of the terrorist group.
Spirit of America is proof that you don’t have to wear a uniform to serve the nation. But you have to do something. Our future of a free, prosperous, and secure life depends on citizens like you doing your part. Please continue to support Spirit of America and do more, if you are able.
Semper Fidelis,
General Joseph F. Dunford Jr.
United States Marine Corps, Retired
