Help Us Empower Our Heroes
How it all started
In 2003 David D. Haddad founded Friends of Freedom (FOF) from a simple premise, to serve those who protect our freedoms. His Flagship program, Freedom/Sticks for Soldiers has delivered over 750,000 cigars into war zones in Iraq and Afghanistan. Later, Friends of Freedom began to assist our military and veterans locally by assisting them with rent, utilities, car repairs, military transition and more.
Since 2009 we have strategically partnered with like-minded organizations including American Airlines, Gary Sinise Foundation, USO, Chef Irvine Foundation, and Tribute To Valor Foundation.
In 2020 adopted Law Enforcement, First Responders, and Emergency Medical Personnel in our outreach.
