Great Rewards for Great Warriors: The primary mission of the Corporal Christopher Kelly Willis Foundation is the funding of college scholarships for the benefit of Michigan children who have lost their parent (or whose parent has been permanently disabled) in a combat zone. It is our belief that these families have also made the ultimate sacrifice.
