Kissing Camels & Angels Community

We empower the children to participate in healing developmental activities such as sports, music, and other arts as positive outlets for their grief during their entire childhood.

Children of fallen heroes. Children of fallen military, police, and EMS.

Who We Are

Angels of America’s Fallen is a nonprofit organization, dedicated to supporting the children of our fallen military, police, fire, and EMS heroes who have made the ultimate sacrifice. Our mission is simple but powerful: we provide long-term support for the children of fallen heroes by funding healthy, developmental activities like sports, music, art, and mentorship from the time of their parent’s passing all the way through the age of 19.

Why? Because losing a parent in service is a life-altering experience. Without continued guidance, support, and encouragement, too many of these children struggle in silence. We help them not just survive, but thrive.

Our Commitment to Their Growth

SPORTS

Encouraging confident, teamwork, & resilience through physical activity.

MUSIC & ART

Cooper’s Journey with Angels

“Angels has given Cooper many opportunities to try new things that I wouldn’t have otherwise been able to provide. Angels & their supporters have helped us get out of the grief fog and remember there is still a whole world out there, and that our fallen hero would want us to live. They remind us that even though our Fallen Hero has gone on before us, there are people out there that understand our sacrifice and that things may be a little harder for us” – Cooper’s Angel Guardian

At only the age of 7, Cooper said, “It means that they (Angels of America’s Fallen and their Supporters) care a lot about me and that they believe in me and have faith in me and they don’t even know me. They care about my Daddy in Heaven. Thank you.”
