Gratitude to Our Benefactors

The Estate of CW4 (Ret) John and Mrs. Jean Allnatt: CW4 (Ret) Allnatt passed away in July of 2002, but his legacy – and that of his wife – remains. Due to a generous donation from their combined estates, dozens of Warrant Officer sponsored children have received scholarships, including two per year in their names. This will continue in perpetuity.

The Jack B. Sacks Foundation: Hired as national advertising manager of the Washington Post in the mid-1930s, Jack Sacks retired as its general advertising manager in 1967, becoming a philanthropist. His grandson, CW4 (Ret) Jack Du Teil, proudly serves as vice president of his foundation, which has funded hundreds of scholarships since 1968, including two USAWOA scholarships per year.

The Estate of CW4 (Ret) Robert (Bob) and Mrs. Rose Scott: CW4 (Ret) Scott passed away in March 2015 and Rose in December 2018. Bob was the primary author of USAWOA Bylaws, administrative manuals, and publications with over four decades of dedicated service to Warrant Officers and USAWOA. He was the first Chairman/CEO of the USAWOASF.

Our generous Chapters, corporate sponsors, and members: USAWOASF simply could not do what we do without your continued financial support. USAWOASF would also like to thank Corporate Partner Peter Radvanyi, of Radvanyi Wealth Management, for his gratis investment advice and assistance with USAWOASF donated funds.
