Our Programs

WHO WE HELP

  

The Foundation’s financial aid and material assistance is administered directly to deserving recipients or through contributions to charitable organizations with which the Foundation has working partnerships. Particular emphasis is given to the support of Marine tankers, especially those of the 2d Tank Battalion, 2d Marine Division, as well as other armed service personnel and their families. Since inception, we have donated over $655,000.

  Active Duty Marines & Veterans


  • 1stLt Michael LiCalzi Scholarship providing college scholarships to Marine Tankers and/or children of Marine Tankers. To date, we have given over fifty scholarships to deserving young men and women totaling $175,000.
  • Direct Marine Support. We have worked with the leadership of 2nd Tank Battalion and Family Readiness Officer (FRO) to help Marines and their families. To date, we have spent $25,000 on and off base to support our Marines. Samples of support have been: 1) Started Baby Program giving every Marine family a package of diapers, wipes, and clothing upon birth of child; 2) Administering “Tanksgiving” program purchasing turkey and all accoutrements for Marines and their families in financial hardship; 3) Funded the furnishing and fixtures for the Family Counselor office at Camp Lejeune; 4) Had the ability to help a Marine’s son who was involved in a swimming accident and was currently hooked up to various types of machines to regulate his body temperature and other life support requirements. Living in the hurricane heavy state of North Carolina, the Marine's family was worried of a power outage. The loss of power could result in the death of this little boy. Ace in the Hole Foundation quickly provided funds to install a generator; and 5) Sent a 19 year old Marine and his family to Disney World for the first time.
