We Stand With Walt

Donation protected
Our Mission:

The purpose of this fundraiser is to show our unified support for MG Lord and serve as a rally point for our collective call to demand accountability of the Board of Trustees.

The Board of Trustees in several communications, but particularly in their last letter, (21 March 2019) characterized Major General Lord’s departure as a character flaw and a dereliction of his duty.

We are demanding that the Board be held accountable not only for these libelous statements but also for their utter lack of transparency and their unwillingness to look in the mirror and reflect on why so many senior military officers in recent years have found the post of President to be untenable under current Board Of Trustees Leadership.

In addition to MG Lord’s departure a former Adjutant General of the PA National Guard and former Under Secretary of Defense for Personnel and Readiness, Lieutenant General Wright resigned from her position of vice chairwoman of the Board of Trustees and spoke out on General Lord’s behalf calling the Board’s actions “wrong”.

In light of all this, this fundraiser is designed for the Alumni, Families, and Friends of the Forge to show our support to MG Lord in a tangible way. By donating you are helping to secure funds that can be used to ensure accountability of the Board of Trustees.

Our support for Major General Walt and Grace Lord is more than mere words of good faith. Our actions “in thought word and deed” are characterized by honor and integrity.

Our Leader: 

Following his graduation and commissioning from Valley Forge Military College Major General Walt Lord class of 1984 along with his wife and teammate Grace served our country for over 30 years with honor and distinction in the United States Army. During that time they also raised two fantastic young men who both currently serve as officers in our Nation’s Army.  

Walt and Grace are a team of dedicated and morally sound leaders who successfully navigated complex geopolitical assignments both at home and abroad. Their years of experience in leadership, mentorship, family readiness, and team work make them a tremendous asset to any organization. They are the embodiment of Soldier, Leader, Patriot, and Family.

Throughout their career the Lord’s have spent countless hours of their time mentoring and improving the lives of the people within their sphere of influence. Most recently and to the delight of thousands of alumni, parents, and friends of Valley Forge that sphere became MG Lord’s Alma Mater, Valley Forge Military Academy and College.
