Custodes Libertatis Memorial Fund
The mission of the Custodes Libertatis Memorial Foundation is to provide financial benefits for the purpose of post-secondary education to the children of Naval Academy alumni who have been killed on or after September 11, 2001 in U.S. military combat or training, in service with U.S. intelligence agencies, law enforcement or as a first responder.
While other organizations exist to benefit wounded or deceased West Point alumni, Special Operations personnel and other groups, the Naval Academy did not have a similar dedicated organization or mechanism to provide financial benefits for education to the families of deceased, post-9/11, alumni across all eligible graduating classes. The Custodes Libertatis Memorial Foundation will provide such assistance.
