The Dennis P. Rando Cadet Humanitarian Fund
The RANDO Fund is named in honor of C1C Dennis P. Rando, one of several cadets in the 1990s who perished before graduating. When an honor guard of his classmates had to pay travel expenses to his memorial service from their own pockets, a group of Massachusetts parents founded the RANDO Fund.
Since 1997, the RANDO Fund has raised private support to provide the means for cadets travel to represent the U.S. Air Force Academy at services of their fallen comrades. In 2012 the AFAF assumed the collection and management of such gifts, with no charge to the RANDO Fund mission. This fund is also used for cadets in need of financial assistance for other reasons.
