Estonian American Fund for Economic Education, Inc.
NEWS RELEASE April 23,2012
No one will be left behind whether on the battlefield or at home. Reinforcing that principle is the mission of the recently established Carolin Illenzeer Foundation in Estonia. The Foundation takes its name from the daughter of a Senior Warrant Officer Arre Illenzeer who was killed in 2004 in Iraq. The Estonian American Fund joined the initial Illenzeer fundraising effort with a $15,000 contribution. Thirty-six children are being reared by the families of the 10 soldiers killed and the 25 seriously wounded. The Foundation’s main concern is to cover the children’s educational expenses.
For all of 2012, the Estonian American Fund is well underway to equal or surpass the 2011 record of $135,385 expended for charitable purposes in Estonia. For more information about the Fund, please consult our website. www.eafund.org
