$5 Million Veteran Education Giveaway (2025)
In honor of America’s veterans and military families, The BrightPath Foundation, in partnership with BrightPath Academy, is proud to launch the $5 Million Veteran Education Giveaway - a New York State initiative providing 5,000 sponsored seats to veterans and their families.
Each seat unlocks access to a complete 11-course education package designed to build financial stability, emotional resilience, leadership, and long-term success after military service.
This is not a sweepstakes; it’s a movement to ensure no veteran or family is left behind because of cost.
| Component | Quantity | Value per Seat | Total Value |
|---|---|---|---|
| Veteran & Family Education Seats | 5,000 | $1,500+ | $5,000,000+ |
How Sponsorship Works
Your contribution directly funds course access for individuals in need.
-
Every $250 donation sponsors up to 100 seats for community access - Financial Discovery Series.
-
You choose your focus - veterans, families, youth, or recovery.
-
We handle the rest: delivery, tracking, and impact reporting.
Each partner receives transparent updates on how their funding is used, including community reach, engagement data, and success stories.
