About Sgt Daniel Vasselian Memorial Road Race
The Sgt Daniel Vasselian Memorial Fund was created in memory of the United States Marine, who was known to most as "Danny" or "Sgt V'. He was killed in action in Afghanistan on December 23, 2013 while serving his third tour of duty protecting our country. Sgt Vasselian was posthumously awarded both Purple Heart Medal and Bronze Star Medal with Valor.
The foundation will honor his sacrifice by assisting Veterans, active duty service members, and military families of Massachusetts who are experiencing financial hardship as a result of unavoidable circumstances. The foundation also awards annual scholarships to graduating Seniors of Abington High School.
