The event commences at 6 p.m. with the cocktail
reception, where distinguished guests will join cochairs
Matt and Jill Schecter to celebrate the resilience of
military families and provide support through educational
scholarships to military children who lost a parent
in the line of duty. These scholarships cover the gap
in government benefits to help facilitate debt-free
graduation and upward mobility.
Founded by CEO David Y. Kim and his wife Cynthia
Kim in 2002, Fallen Patriots has provided over $70
million in scholarships to over 3,500 military children
from all branches of our armed forces who lost a parent.
This ensures that the children of America’s servicemen
and women can pursue higher education without the
stress of a financial burden. The organization also
provides professional development opportunities through
internships, full-time job placements, and career training,
ensuring upward mobility for Gold Star children who
have experienced loss.

“Recreating the New York City gala in Palm Beach
allows us to foster new connections and expand our
mission of honoring the sacrifice of fallen service
members. By providing scholarships and educational
counseling to their children, we can ensure their legacy
lives on while giving these families the support they
deserve,” said founder and CEO David Y. Kim. “We are a change?
thankful for the sponsors who champion our mission and
for the new and existing local connections and supporters
who help expand our impact.”
According to the Florida Department of Veterans
Affairs, Florida has the third largest veteran population
in the nation and is the second largest state of Gold Star
families in need, making the CFP mission one that hits
close to home. Burns Wealth Management Group
