Supporting individuals driven to serve within the
U.S. Military Special Operations Forces.
The Keigan Baker Memorial Fund is a non-profit organization that was formed in memory and honor of A1C Keigan Baker who gave his life in pursuit of his dream to serve and protect the United States of America.
Keigan was focused on a career of service from very early on and worked diligently every day to ensure his success. His character and unyielding drive earned him a slot as a U.S. Air Force Combat Controller in 2019.
He was and still is our inspiration.
Keigan was our inspiration in starting this non-profit and continues to be our inspiration as we work to grow awareness of who he was and what he stood for.
We will keep Keigan's legacy alive by supporting others with the same passion and commitment ... those willing to achieve the unattainable, to work diligently toward service to others, to give their all for the betterment of mankind and the world in which we live.
Our mission is simple...to support individuals with the desire, drive and ability to achieve the role of Special Operations Forces within our U.S. military.
We will accomplish this mission through partnership with entities that provide mentoring and training opportunities geared toward US SOF careers, providing scholarships to qualified individuals for participation in partner programs.
Helping others achieve what Keigan did.
