Arlington, VA, February 23, 2023 – The 2023 Air Force Assistance Fund (AFAF) campaign will take place from February 27th to June 16th. This year, the annual AFAF campaign celebrates 50 years of taking care of Airmen, Guardians, and their families when they needed it most.

For 50 years, the Air Force Assistance Fund charities: Air Force Aid Society, Air Force Enlisted Village, Blue Skies of Texas, and the LeMay Foundation have provided critical support to Airmen, Guardians, and their families – active duty and retired, officers and enlisted through the annual AFAF campaign.

The AFAF campaign raised $2.2 million in support of Air Force and Space Force families last year alone. “We couldn’t have raised the funds if it wasn’t for our fellow Airmen, Guardians, and supporters who contribute consistently to the annual campaign…We are counting on you to make this year’s milestone campaign an even greater success than the previous years,” said Kaleth O. Wright, AFAS Chief Executive Officer.
