The main purpose behind the rally was to raise money for the excellent <a href="http://www.specialops.org/" target="_blank">Special Operations Warrior Foundation</a>. The foundation exists to help the families of SpecOps personnel killed in battle. Members of the organization befriend and mentor the children of the fallen throughout their lives into adulthood. They also provide full college scholarships to the surviving children. Around 125 young people are currently enrolled in colleges around the country because of SOWF.</p><p>Currently there are more than 500 families SOWF is looking after and that takes money. A lot of money. Which is why Glenn Beck chose to partner with SOWF for his “Restoring Honor” rally in DC over the weekend.</p><p>The rally that the media loved to hate was able to raise more than <a href="http://gatewaypundit.firstthings.com/2010/08/by-the-way-glenn-beck-raised-5-5-million-for-special-operations-warrior-fund/" target="_blank">$5.5 million</a> for SOWF in a single weekend.
