The gratitude initiative's mission is to provide educational support and scholarships to the children and families of military service members, veterans, disabled veterans, and those killed in defense of our country.
| Description | Grants | Expenses |
|---|---|---|
| 2016 was another successful year for Gratitude Initiative (GI). GI was not only able to launch its educational programs a year ahead of schedule, but was also able to exponentially grow its national and global reach to better serve and support its mission. GI supported military and veteran families in 14 U.S. states, and increased awareness of its programs through nationwide campaigns with some of its key partners. During the Month of the Military Child (April) GI conducted numerous informational events to increase awareness of military/veteran children and highlighted their service to our country. In addition to ongoing donor generosity, GI secured grant funding to promote and continue to support high-need educational groups: such as STEM careers, female and minority-focused educational outreach, and more. GI has generated partnerships and made lasting connections with other like-minded nonprofit organizations. These partnerships help GI achieve its mission by connecting with more students and families that can benefit from GIs unique programs. | $156,999 | - |
