Review for The National Military Family Association, Alexandria, VA, USA
This is an incredible organization. The staff consists largely of military spouses that are willing to work for below market wages because they are devoted to the mission of the organization. The organization identified a need for educational help for military spouses and created a scholarship program, solicited initial funding from General Dynamics and now have a program just a few years later that will grant over 500 scholarships this year. After a long career with an elite Federal Agency, I have never been prouder to serve than helping this dedicated group.
