Hess Family

At SOWF, we know how important early education is to the future success of our students, that is why we provide up to $8,000 a year to children ages 2-5 to any nationally accredited early childhood program of choice. One of our youngest students, Miss Everest Hess, recently started Montessori school and is "ready to meet new friends!"

"I am so excited that she is getting this amazing opportunity that will have such a strong and lasting positive impact on her education. I am grateful and humbled beyond words for the continued love and support we have received from Special Operations Warrior Foundation with all that they have given in support of the education for the children of fallen special operations soldiers. They are fully covering Everest’s tuition. Thank you for stepping up in the absence of our soldier."
