Dear Lead The Way Fund,

Thank you for your generous donation to the Alpha Company Family Readiness Group over the last 6 months. The Lead The Way Fund continues to assist the Ranger Regiment and the Nation by delivering much needed funds that are critical to caring for our Rangers and their families.

With the amount of training and deployments that the Ranger Regiment executes it would be very challenging to fill the funding needs required to run our FRG programs. Your organization takes that burden from us and truly enables our Company to care for our Ranger families and ensure they receive the information and support they need.

Rangers Lead The Way!

Thank You From the R. Family

Dear Lead The Way Fund,

Words cannot express the gratitude in receiving the extremely generous gift cards that you sent our family. You have blessed us immensely! You have enabled us to give our children the presents they wanted for Christmas. It is an honor and a blessing to receive this gift card in SGT Regan’s name. The support the Regan family has given to the Army Rangers is extraordinary!!! From the care packages for them and the monitary donations for their spouses and children and your continued support of the injured and Fallen Rangers and their families is awe inspiring! We are humbled by your dedication and commitment! Thank you and may God Bless all of you!

Respectfully,

The R. Family

Santa Day with Lead The Way

A great time was had by children and parents alike at the 1st Annual Santa Day with Lead The Way hosted for the families of the 75th Ranger Regiment in Fort Benning.

It was great to see pictures and hear of all the smiles brought to the children’s faces as they played in bounce houses, did crafts and had a special visit from Santa himself.  We look forward to doing it again next year!
