 VETERANS DAY 2025 INITIATIVE

Empowering Veterans Through Real Access -Not Just Words

No Cost. No Politics. Just Partnership.

This Veterans Day initiative is fully funded by The BrightPath Foundation and delivered through The BrightPath Academy - a veteran-founded education platform built on emotional intelligence, financial literacy, and leadership development.

We’re not asking for funding. We’re offering you a way to give back directly to the veterans in your district;  with structure, purpose, and measurable impact.

Did you know that 68% of Americans have
less than $1,000 in savings?

Whether you’re a business leader,
educator, or city official there’s a way to walk the BrightPath with us.

Empowering Veterans, Families, & Underserved Communities

Through Real-World Learning


THE BrightPath Academy
 is a first-of-its-kind Emotional Intelligence and Financial Wellness Academy built on the principles of Social-Emotional Learning (SEL).
Our programs teach people how to lead calmly, think clearly, communicate effectively, and manage their money with purpose and confidence.

THE BrightPath Foundation is the outreach engine that brings that education to the public.
We form public-private partnerships with cities, corporations, nonprofits, and community organizations to fund, distribute, and deliver the Academy’s programs where they are needed most.

Purpose

To honor veterans by giving them structure — not just words of gratitude.
When veterans have structure, they can change everything.

This initiative aims to empower 10,000 veterans and families nationwide with real-world education in financial literacy, emotional wellness, and leadership.
