Student Veterans of America
October 1, 2011
Student Veterans of America is a great non-profit whom has made a difference in our group's ongoing dialogue with our university administration. It has served our group of student veterans by providing us with $$ to attend their leadership summit, providing $$ for local events (2/3 requests were funded) and has given us guidance on how to implement change on our campus. The mission of the organization is to connect various student groups and not to "tell" them what to do. Every group is considered independent and allowed to provide a tailored approach to their student veteran population. One thing I love: they have repeatedly stated that the local chapters are the "hub" of this organization and they made several attempts to solidify this statement with scholarships, chapter grants, internships, conferences, and various other resources.
As a result, Ive donated to this organization to allow other student veterans the ability to enact change on their campus. I hope that if you are reading this that you realize how critical of a role SVA has played in the development of me as a student leader. While there may be some opportunities for improvements, SVA is a young organization whom has made significant strides to improve its funding mechanism for greater funds output and increased communications with local chapter members. Given the sheer growth they have experienced, I am quite pleased in the manner by which they've handled themselves and the needs of fellow student veterans.
God bless you SVA and may you continue making a positive impact.

The Great!
I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
2010 National Conference & the 2011 Leadership Summit.
Ways to make it better...
If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...
Provide a forum for student veterans to communicate more often on advocacy and on-campus issues. Also, as the organization increases its funding base, provide additional funding to existing programs to ensure that newly formed student veteran groups succeed.
