This summer, Anheuser-Busch and its wholesaler partners are once again joining forces with Folds of Honor ― a nonprofit organization that provides life-changing educational scholarships to the families of fallen or disabled U.S. service members and first responders ― to release limited-edition Budweiser patriotic packaging.
With a century-long commitment to supporting the military and honoring those who serve our country, Anheuser-Busch is proud to continue its work with Folds of Honor as the organization’s longest standing partner. During the past 14 years, Anheuser-Busch, its industry leading brands, and wholesaler partners have donated $28 million, which has funded more than 5,000 scholarships for Folds of Honor recipients.
“For over a decade, Anheuser-Busch, its brands and wholesaler network have been invaluable partners, significantly advancing Folds of Honor’s mission of providing life-changing educational scholarships to military and first responders’ families,” said Folds of Honor Founder and CEO, Lt. Col. Dan Rooney, in a statement. “Their steadfast support has been instrumental in driving tangible change, evident in a 63% surge in scholarship applications in 2023 alone.
“As we reflect on the past 14 years, we are deeply grateful for Anheuser-Busch’s enduring partnership and the profound impact it has had,” he continued. “We’re thankful that Budweiser is once again taking its support on the road with a national Clydesdale tour to celebrate those who have served and their families and empower consumers to contribute to our cause as well.”
