LTC Scott Pierce, USAR, US Special Forces & LTC Chuck McLaughlin USAR, US Special Forces, run this Foundation:
http://www.2nddragoons.org/
They contribute and raise money for the foundation and distribute the funds to service members and/or their families when individual cases of need are found or brought to our attention. We are primarily associated with the U.S. Army's 2nd Cavalry Regiment due to previous service with the Regiment by the founding members. However, we do consider cases from other U.S. Army units, especially if there is a previous connection with the 2nd Cavalry Regiment or other U.S. Cavalry Regiments.
Scott also runs this blog:

Scott has been to Iraq twice and is a fine American. Chuck has been to Iraq once and elsewhere many times. Both were my roommates when I was in the Army and are still good friends. You can trust any $$ given to this Foundation will be spent on servicemen and their families. No more honorable men exist on our planet, than Chuck and Scott.
Army Emergency Relief is the agency most soldiers go to in time of need.
