Giving Back Through Education

Since 2014, Johnny Mac Soldiers Fund has awarded over $16 million in scholarships to veterans and military family members, especially children of the fallen or disabled. There are now 2,000 Johnny Mac Scholars attending schools all over the country.

How We Help

For every Mercedes-Benz vehicle sold in the U.S. holiday season, the company will make a donation to the Johnny Mac Soldiers Fund, which helps provide eligible military children with college scholarships and other college assistance.

Why we help

Time and again, America’s military members and their families are asked to give of themselves for the rest of us. While they ask little in return, we owe them so much.

Who we help

Mercedes-Benz USA Dealers are honoring fallen members of the U.S. Armed Forces by lifting their children up.

Who was Johnny Mac?

Col. John McHugh, a member of the U.S. Army for 24 years, was killed in action on May 18, 2010, in Kabul, Afghanistan. His fellow West Point classmates then joined together to ensure that his five children would receive a college education. In 2014, that effort grew into the Johnny Mac Soldiers Fund.
