About Glen

US Navy SEAL Glen Doherty was one of four Americans killed in a terror attack at the US Consulate in Benghazi, Libya on September 12, 2012. Glen and the three other Americans killed in the attack were posthumously awarded the Congressional Gold Medal, the highest expression of national appreciation for distinguished achievements and contributions by an individual. This foundation is our way to honor Glen's life and his beliefs. 

Our Mission

The Glen Doherty Memorial Foundation was established to help ease the transition from military to civilian work for the Special Operations Community. We accomplish this by providing scholarships to current and former Special Operations professionals, from all branches of the military, for traditional education or vocational/professional training.

Our Charity 

We are a 501(c)(3) charity organization dedicated to honoring and preserving the memory of Glen Doherty and all those who have paid the ultimate sacrifice in defending our nation. We participate in celebratory, challenging fundraising events like the TCS New York City Marathon to raise money for our scholars and awareness for our mission.
