(Lebanon, NH — May 18 2026) — Global Rescue, the world’s leading provider of medical, security, evacuation and travel risk management services, is helping to fund 36 scholarships provided by the Glen Doherty Memorial Foundation (GDMF) for active and former members of the US military Special Operations community transition to new careers through advanced education and professional training.

“The Glen Doherty Memorial Foundation delivers measurable, life-changing outcomes for Special Operations professionals at a pivotal moment in their lives,” said Dan Richards, CEO of The Global Rescue Companies. “Our continued support reflects a long-term commitment to helping these men and women translate their leadership, discipline and experience into successful civilian careers.”

For the 2024–25 academic year, GDMF awarded 18 new scholarships and is also supporting 18 current scholars in their second, third or fourth year of study. Programs include MBA, MD, JD, PhD, PA, BS/BA degrees and pilot’s licenses, providing pathways to careers in medicine, law, business, aviation and other critical professions.

“Global Rescue’s ongoing support allows us to invest not only in new scholars, but also in those already deep into demanding academic and professional programs,” said Kate (Doherty) Quigley, President of the Glen Doherty Memorial Foundation. “That continuity is essential to helping our scholars complete their education and build sustainable careers beyond the military.”

Global Rescue’s connection to the Special Operations community is deeply rooted within its own organization. Approximately 20 percent of Global Rescue’s medical, security and administrative staff are military veterans, primarily from the Special Operations community, bringing firsthand operational experience and mission focus to the company’s global response capabilities.

Glen Doherty, a former Global Rescue Operations Specialist and US Navy SEAL, was killed in the 2012 terrorist attacks on the US Consulate in Benghazi, Libya while working for the US Department of State.

“Glen was an exceptional member of the Global Rescue team and a respected professional,” said Richards. “Supporting the Foundation that bears his name is one way we honor his legacy by helping today’s Special Operations professionals prepare for their next chapter.”

Since its founding in 2013, the Glen Doherty Memorial Foundation has awarded scholarships to 135 deserving individuals totaling more than $1 million. All active-duty and former Special Operations Forces personnel, including Army Green Berets & Rangers, Navy SEALs & SWCCs, Marine Raiders & Force RECON, and Air Force Special Tactics, and their children are eligible for scholarships. The Foundation’s work plays a vital role in enabling elite military professionals to successfully transition into new professional roles after service.
