The Andy Nowacki Foundation, incorporated as a 501(c)3, was created by the family and friends of Marine Lance Cpl. Andrew “Ace” W. Nowacki, who lost his life on February 26, 2005 while protecting a convoy during Operation Iraqi Freedom.

The Andy Nowacki Foundation, Inc. (the “Foundation”) provides meaningful scholarships for those seeking to serve the community in the fields of public safety or nursing. Through your participation and generous donations, the Foundation grants scholarships to candidates so they can serve others with compassion and dedication in the spirit of Andy.
