our programs

The Jewish War Veterans Foundation annually awards over $9,000 between two different grant programs to help veterans and student descendants of veterans finance their college education.

The National Achievement Program is for veterans or active duty personnel to go back to school.  Several grants are awarded annually to applications. 

The National Youth Achievement Program is for high school seniors who are direct descendants of members of the Jewish War Veterans of U.S.A.  Applicants must be accepted by an accredited college, university or hospital school of nursing entering into the freshman year in the Fall Semester.
