We are requesting donations in support of the 18th Annual Iowa All Academy Ball to be held in Des Moines, Iowa on December 21, 2025. The Iowa All Services Foundation’s mission is to honor and support Iowa Cadets, Midshipmen, graduates, and the families of all five United States Service Academies (West Point, Naval Academy, Air Force Academy, Coast Guard Academy, and Merchant Marine Academy). Our biggest event of the year is the annual ball which serves a fourfold mission. The first is to honor the young men and women from Iowa attending one of the Service Academies. Second, this event serves as a training and development opportunity for the social skills required in formal situations that our future military officers will encounter throughout their careers. Third, it provides a valuable opportunity for the midshipmen and cadets to build community across services lines. And finally, it serves a very important philanthropic mission raising funds for our designated veteran-focused charities.
This year we have selected the Puppy Jake Foundation and the Iowa Veterans Home in Marshalltown, Iowa as our focus. As a very small organization, we strive not only to provide a meaningful event for those who attend but extend our reach in support of Iowa based veterans. The past few years have been very challenging for everyone, and donations have been more difficult to obtain. The planning committee has worked diligently this year to trim the budget where possible while not sacrificing the significance of the evening. We are asking businesses and individuals to help make our 2025 event a success via sponsorship. All levels of sponsorship are welcome. The Iowa All Services Academy Foundation is a 501(c) (3) tax-exempt corporation (EIN#46-0982530). Your gift is tax deductible as provided by law.
Thank you for your consideration and effort in review of this request and application materials. Further information may be obtained on our website:
