Funding and Sponsorship
DISCLAIMER: The 'Summit for Soldiers' project started as my personal quest. 'Summit for Soldiers' the 501(c)(3) non-profit "Organization" grew out of this endeavour. Even though the primary mission of my quest and the organization the same, not a single cent of SfS funding or donations goes towards my personal climbs and expeditions. If you believe in my Mission and Quest, and would like to help support me in getting the Silently Fallen Flag to the remainder of these summits, please consider a contribution. Please note that these are not tax-exempt donations. As with all my expeditions, I cover 80% of the cost myself and I limit external sources and contributions to 20%. Thank You! - C. Michael Fairman
