Entering A New Decade of Life Changing Impact
Honoring the sacrifices of our Military and Law Enforcement families by helping their children succeed in college, their career, and life.
ENSURING OUR PROTECTORS’ CHILDREN SUCCEED IN COLLEGE, CAREER, AND LIFE
Each day, both in our own communities and around the globe, brave moms and dads risk their lives to keep us safe and free. Our military service members and law enforcement officers deserve our deepest gratitude. We believe there is no greater way to honor their sacrifice than to help prepare their children for college, career, and a successful future.
SHOWING OUR GRATITUDE SINCE 2013
GI works with thousands of students and parents in every state and around the world providing our one-of-a-kind college and career preparatory program, educational workshops, scholarships, and more.
Our programs are free to the families we serve thanks to our donors.
In 2013, leading experts in college and career counseling, distance learning, and test prep came together with the goal of developing a unique program specifically designed for military families and their children. They saw the unprecedented burdens that the past twelve years of continuous deployments had on our military families and believed there was no greater way to show their gratitude than to help the children of our military and veteran families reach their college and career dreams. With the help of like-minded friends and business professionals, GI was born.
“Our goal was to develop the absolute best college and career preparatory program available today, designed specifically to support military families worldwide, and give it away for free. That’s exactly what we did.”
-Lee Sechrist, Co-Founder and Army veteran
