I was over at the Extreme Mortman, and he is supporting what looks like a great Charity, and a way to give back to our Troops. ThanksUSA offers scholarships as excerpted here from their web site:
Who is eligible for the scholarships?
All legally dependent children, age 24 and under (as of the 5/30/06 application deadline), and all legal spouses of active-duty U.S. military service personnel are eligible to apply for scholarships with ThanksUSA®.
ThanksUSA defines "Active-duty U.S. military personnel" as those who have served in active duty for at least 180 days since 9/11/01, including all those who have been killed or wounded in action. "U.S. military personnel" are defined as members of the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines and Coast Guard. Members of the military reserves who have been activated to full-time duty and members of the National Guard who have been federalized and who otherwise meet the requirements are both eligible.
The Scholarships range from $1,000 to $5,000 per their website, and here is a fact sheet for details on the organization and scholarship fund. Give it a look, and of course please "give back" to those who are sacrificing so much for us!
