OUR GOAL & MISSION
The Upchurch Foundation exists to help military personnel and their dependents with the healing, resources, and skills necessary to make a successful transition from military culture to civilian culture.
We hope to provide faith-based holistic health to those individuals and families suffering from the effects of trauma.
The foundation was established in honor of Pfc. Clinton Upchurch who was killed in action in 2006 while serving in Iraq in the Army’s 101st Airborne Division. Clint’s passion was serving others - whether it was for the U.S. Army’s “Screaming Eagles” or, prior to enlisting, as an officer for the Finney County Kansas Sheriff’s Department and the DEA Task Force. Clint gave the ultimate sacrifice, but like so many others who have served or who are serving, he experienced the negative physical and psychological effects of war prior to his death. Clint’s approach to overcoming challenges came through teamwork; and in that same spirit, the Upchurch Foundation takes a holistic approach to the healing and the restoration process.
