Honor The Sacrifice.
Since 2008, No Greater Sacrifice has committed $30M+ to provide debt-free education for the children of America's bravest.
“Thanks to NGS, I'm able to pursue my education without the burden of debt. The people at NGS have been there for me every step of the way.”
Since 2008, NGS has stood with the families of the fallen and wounded.
A Scholar. A mentor. A debt-free degree.
We calculate exactly what's left after every other source of aid and fund it — from enrollment to graduation — so no Scholar carries debt because of a parent's sacrifice. Then we pair every Scholar with a dedicated mentor until the diploma is in their hands.

Lexus and her twin brother, Noah, were only 2 ½ years old when their father was deployed to Iraq. Their father, SSG Kent Moorefield (retired) was serving as a supply sergeant with the 505th Engr. in Mosul, Iraq. After serving 14 months in Iraq, he returned home a changed man suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). He served faithfully and proudly for 26 years in the military and then joined Joint Force Headquarters in Raleigh, NC as a contract Logistics Manager serving there 12 ½ years.
