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 |
|---|---|---|
| In 2017, The Gratitude Initiative (GI), has been able to extend its reach to more military families thanks to its continued partnership with great organizations like Halliburton, Tip of the Spear Foundation, Sport Clips and Carry The Load. These organizations commitment to support our military and veteran families and our partnership with other military and veteran-focused nonprofits has enabled GI to identify and provide our services to these deserving families. GI is now serving families in 21 states and numerous others stationed around the world. Thanks to grant funding GI developed several Day in the Life career videos which focused on STEM related careers and included those in an online career fair for not only its students, but others reached through social media. GI is continuing to connect with other like-minded organizations to achieve its goal of connecting with more deserving students that can benefit from its programs. | $149,485 | - |
