The Bell Helicopter Armed Forces Bowl has designated the Fort Worth Air Power Foundation as its hometown charity to go along with its national charity partner, the USO. The mission of the Fort Worth Air Power Foundation is one that aligns well with the desires of the bowl to support the military in all facets of life. The actual Foundation mission is to provide financial assistance to military families on a case-by-case basis, to financially support deployment and welcome home receptions and comfort gatherings for the families of deployed military and to provide financial support for the Welfare and Relief projects of the units assigned in North Texas. In addition, the Foundation supports the soldiers that have been wounded in battle and that are recuperating at military hospitals in Texas. more>
