The Jason George Memorial Foundation was founded to honor the memory and values of Major Jason George, a US Army Officer killed in the line of duty in Iraq in 2009. Jason was an Eagle Scout, and alumnus of West Point, a Michigan MBA, and a great friend to those who knew him. As an Admissions Officer for West Point Jason was activated and deployed to Iraq in 2009, where he volunteered for Civil Affairs duty in Baghdad. Jason was a man who served faithfully, without complaint, and his passing came far too soon.
The Jason George Memorial Foundation is a 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to supporting veterans, promoting civic service, and providing for the scholarship of those who serve. Through social events we spread the message of serving others and provide donations to organizations supporting veterans. In addition, the foundation works closely with other organizations to promote scholarship of those who have served.
The North Carolina National Guard Armory in Fayetteville, North Carolina, was renamed the “Major Jason George Readiness Center” on June 23, 2018 at a ceremony held at the Fayetteville armory. The ceremony was held in honor of Major Jason George who was killed in action on May 21, 2009 near Baghdad, Iraq by injuries sustained from an improvised explosive device.
