FLYING ACE JOINS FORCES WITH FOLDS OF HONOR TO FUND SCHOLARSHIPS FOR MILITARY AND FIRST RESPONDER FAMILIES

Liberty Sponsorship of Folds of Honor Red White and Blue Gala and Special Edition Bottle Initiative to Support Educational Opportunities

HOLLAND, Mich., Feb. 24, 2025  – Flying Ace, producer of small-batch, American-made bourbon, is proud to announce its partnership with Folds of Honor, a nonprofit dedicated to providing educational scholarships to the families of fallen and disabled military service members and first responders. As part of this commitment, Flying Ace served as the Liberty Sponsor for the Folds of Honor Red, White and Blue Gala on February 22^nd, 2025, while launching a national consumer donation campaign.

This partnership will help fund four scholarships in 2025, directly benefiting the children and spouses of American heroes. To amplify awareness, Flying Ace is including a QR code on every bottle necker, making it easy for consumers to take action and contribute to the cause with every purchase.

"Education is a gift that transforms lives, and we’re honored to support the families of those who have sacrificed for our nation," said Ali Anderson, Chief Executive Officer of CraftCo., producers of Flying Ace. "Through this partnership, we hope to make a real impact by funding scholarships and creating opportunities for a brighter future."

Flying Ace’s Commitment to Giving Back
As part of this initiative, Flying Ace is finding multiple ways to honor our service member and first responder families throughout the year, including:

• Liberty Sponsorship of the Red White and Blue Gala, in Grand Rapids, MI – A high-impact fundraising event supporting Folds of Honor’s mission.
• Special-Edition Release for Scholarship Fundraising – A commemorative whiskey expression is being co-developed with Folds of Honor for release later this year. In the meantime, QR-coded bottle neckers are affixed to every bottle of Flying Ace Straight Bourbon with 100% of consumer-donated proceeds going directly to the cause

"Our mission at Folds of Honor is to ensure that no family is left behind when it comes to educational opportunities," said Lt Col Dan Rooney, founder and CEO of Folds of Honor. "Thanks to partners like Flying Ace, we can continue making dreams a reality for those who have given so much for our country."
