Dave Winters Calls Into The Show, Talks Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund

David A. Winters serves as President of the Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund, a leading national organization supporting the military community. Since 2000 the Fund has raised close $200 million for families of military personnel lost in Iraq and Afghanistan, and for several special projects serving wounded military personnel and veterans.  

Winters oversees the Fund’s strategic planning, fundraising and program execution. He has been with the Fund since its establishment in 2000 and became President in 2011. 

More on Dave Winters: 

"I began working at the Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum in NYC in the early 90s.  The Museum was founded by Zachary Fisher, a great American patriot who initiated a number of non-profit efforts supporting military and veteran’s families. One of his efforts involved providing immediate financial support to families of military personnel lost in action; I began managing this effort for him in 1994.  When Zachary passed away in 1999, his family decided to continue that effort, and ultimately established a new organization, the Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund, to carry it out.  So I have been involved with the Fund since its founding in 2000.  I became president in 2011."
