“It has been my honor and privilege to help the Foundation serve the military and civilian communities around the globe” George C. Tally Jr.

Chairman of the Board of Directors First Command Educational Foundation

Letter from the Chairman

2005 was a remarkable year for First Command Educational Foundation in many ways. It was distinguished by many victories. Contributions reached an all time high, and I join the Foundation staff in acknowledging the generosity of 480 donors whose names are listed on the pages that follow. Contributions in 2005 totaled over $1.4 million and were used to fund our scholarship, classroom, and train-the trainer programs. This year we also received the largest single donation in the history of the Foundation, thanks to the Payne family. The Foundation and the people we serve are extremely grateful for the generosity of this incredible family, and we have devoted a page in this annual report to their donation. Scholarships totaled $147,000. They were awarded to 122 high school graduates who are military dependents and to 15 ROTC students. The awards went to a dazzling group of highly qualified college-bound students. All of their names are listed in this report. High school scholarship grants are funded jointly by local First Command Financial Planning offices and the Educational Foundation. On behalf of the awardees, we thank each local office for its generous support to this important program. ROTC scholarship grants are 100% funded by the Foundation. Our Speakers Bureau was active again as our 28 volunteer speakers delivered 71 presentations, which were attended by over 6,300 personnel at military installations and in civilian communities around the world. The generous men and women who volunteer for the Speakers Bureau deserve a special note of appreciation for their time and effort. Basic Financial Management, Course I of the Personal Financial Education Series was conducted twice in 2005 (April 18-22, Cape May, New Jersey; and September 12-16, Kodiak, Alaska). Advanced Financial Management, Course II of the series, was conducted once in 2005 in Fort Worth, Texas, November 7-11. 2005 was a year of transition and change for the Foundation. At year end, we had elected a new Chairman of the Board, Harry Bartel, and a new Executive Director, Vickie Mauldin. We had filed a broader mission statement with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and applied with the IRS to voluntarily change our status from a private foundation to a public charity. We had also submitted an application to the Office of Personnel Management to be included in the 2006 Combined Federal Campaign. These actions will undoubtedly result in many rapid, successive achievements for the Foundation in 2006 and for many years to come. With my tenure as the Chairman at an end, I would like to express my pride in serving the Foundation for over three years as a Director and a little over one year as the Chairman of the Board. It has been my honor and privilege to help the Foundation serve the military and civilian communities around the globe. I’m extremely confident in the new Foundation leadership and anticipate numerous noteworthy accomplishments for the Foundation. My best wishes to each of you for many successes in your personal and professional lives. George C. Talley, Jr. Chairman of the Board of Directors First Command Educational Foundation

Letter from the President

First Command Educational Foundation

Picture this. A young mother, age 26, tears welling in her eyes, says goodbye to her husband before her flight departs for the Persian Gulf. Her husband holds a toddler in his arms while another small child clings tightly to her mother’s hand. Mom is going overseas to serve her country while he stays home to face the challenges of raising children and running a household alone. Are they financially ready for this? Probably not…

“Our challenge, and yours, is to help prepare these young Americans for the Or This. Young Mark graduates from high school, and with academic scholarship in hand, heads financial road off to college in August. Mom & Dad set him up with a bank account at the local bank on campus, ahead.” complete with checkbook and credit/debit card, in case he needs it for emergencies. But young Mark has no experience with credit and does not know how to balance a checking account. Indeed, Don Frizzell he probably does not appreciate the need to balance his new checking account. Is Mark ready to President of manage his finances, now that he is on his own at college? Probably not… First Command Why do so many American families struggle with their money? It’s at least partly because society does not teach us how to successfully manage our financial lives. Families don’t discuss financial responsibility with their children. Schools don’t teach personal financial skills. Instead, society emphasizes consumption, spending, immediate gratification, how to get a loan, avoid the bill collector, and file bankruptcy.

Educational Foundation

First Command Education Foundation enlists your help in the drive toward financial literacy. America has the lowest savings rate in the industrialized world. Consumers don’t understand the basics of using their own money instead of someone else’s. Nor do they appreciate the cost of these bad habits. Our Foundation can’t do anything about the amount of money a family earns, but we can fill in the blanks on how to manage it. The soldier’s challenge is to serve his country and come home safely. The young father’s challenge is to take care of his family. Young Mark’s challenge is to pursue his adult education with as few distractions as possible. Our challenge, and yours, is to help prepare these young Americans for the financial road ahead. Financial literacy will help smooth out some of the curves and dips along the way. Helping Individual Americans and their Families Achieve Financial Independence! That is why we are here! I hope we can count on your help. On a personal note, it has been my privilege to serve as the Foundation’s president since 2001. Although my retirement is effective at the end of 2005, I will continue to serve on the Board of Directors and work several days a week as a Foundation volunteer. I have enjoyed my long relationship with this Foundation immensely and leave active service with many fond memories and friends. Best wishes to you and yours for continued successes.

President of First Command Educational Foundation

In 2005, First Command Educational Foundation received a record-setting donation of $500,000 from the family of Carroll H. Payne, founder of the Educational Foundation. This was the largest monetary gift in the Foundation’s 22year history. Coupled with the April donation of $200,000, (see “A Night in Sardinia”) the Payne family has generously donated a total of $700,000 to the Foundation in 2005 alone.

In memory

First Command Educational Foundation

This year, we mourn the loss of two of the Foundations devoted speakers. They volunteered their knowledge, experience, and time to help others achieve personal financial literacy. Their contributions to the Foundation will always be remembered.

Charles F. Riordan III Major, USAF (Retired) October 25, 1953 - February 27, 2005 As a certified volunteer of the Speakers Bureau, Chuck Riordan was an enthusiastic and powerful voice of the Foundation. He had strong convictions about the need for financial education and also served as a volunteer for the Personal Financial Management Program at Eglin AFB for five years. A graduate of the United States Air Force Academy, Chuck served his country for 19 years, finally retiring with the rank of Major. He served 3 years as Instructor Pilot at Reese AFB, 4 years as Aircraft Commander at Elmendorf AFB, 3 years as Instructor Aircraft Commander at Little Rock AFB, and 4 years as Instructor Aircraft Commander at Scott AFB. We appreciate Chuck’s years of service, and his involvement with the Foundation will be greatly missed.

James Weaver Colonel, USAF (Retired) December 4, 1940 - September 21, 2005 Jim Weaver brought 10 years of financial advisor experience to the Foundation’s Speakers Bureau. As a certified volunteer, Jim was a knowledgeable, talented speaker and an important member of the team. A graduate of the United States Air Force Academy, Jim served for 26 years and flew over 260 combat missions as a F-100D/F Super Saber Pilot in Vietnam. As well as being an instructor pilot, Jim was also commander of 2 UPT squadrons at Laughlin AFB, deputy commander of operations at Randolph AFB, wing commander at Officer Training School, and vice commander at Air Force Institute of Technology. Jim’s participation with the Foundation will be greatly missed.
