“As a company that values its partnerships with the Department of Defense and 14 institutions of higher education, this event brings together our passions for supporting military families and students who are working toward achieving their career goals,” said Corvias CEO Chris Wilson. “We are grateful for our sponsors – many of them the companies with whom Corvias works closely – for their contributions in support of the impactful work of Corvias Foundation.”
“This event reflects a heartfelt tradition of nearly 20 years and a steadfast commitment to our mission of supporting military families,” said Julie Allen, executive director of Corvias Foundation. “Military-connected students can feel isolated with parents’ frequent deployments and moves. These students are our future too and we are here to help them achieve their career aspirations.”
Corvias Foundation has awarded more than $15 million in scholarships to more than 450 military-connected students to support their education. In addition, Corvias Foundation is proud to support the National Military Family Association Military Spouse Scholarship program and the Army Scholarship Foundation.
