100% of Money Raised Given To Heroes Families
Marines deployed from Camp Pendleton were among the 13 Heroes who died and the 20 that were wounded in the August 26 suicide bombing at the Kabul airport in Afghanistan. San Clemente has always supported our military, especially Marines of Camp Pendleton. We ask the community to come together and show our support and caring by creating a fund to be distributed where 100% of the Proceeds will be distributed to benefit the families of our fallen.

The team at Bella Collina have created a fundraising initiative to help the families of these fallen soldiers by inviting local businesses to donate a portion of their business proceeds raised on Veterans Day. Individual donations are also welcome. Any support and any amount contributed is appreciated.
We have partnered with the local 501(c)3 non-profit, The Heritage of San Clemente Foundation, creator of “The Marine Monument”, and Marine Corps League – South Coast Detachment 22 . The Foundation is helping to collect tax deductible donations and will use the San Clemente based Marine Corps League-South Coast Detachment a 501 {c}[4} Non-Profit to distribute these funds. They will work with the 2/1 Chaplain and Command to make sure this Outreach effort is distributed to benefit the Families of our Fallen.
We invite your participation, either as a business, or an individual raising money for the loved ones of our military members.
