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.
