A Note From Our Gala Co-Chairs

​Thank you for your interest in ThanksUSA’s Military Family Gala! ThanksUSA has been thanking our troops for 15 years by caring for their families through much-needed educational support. In doing so, we aim to strengthen these families — by increasing the earning potential for a military spouse or helping a military child attend the school of their dreams. We see families as the backbone of military strength and a true representation of sacrifice. With your support, we can collectively show our appreciation for the families of our troops and celebrate their allegiance, spirit of service, and heroism at home. 

Hon. B. Robert Okun, Chairman of ThanksUSA, Founder and CEO of The O Team
Mr. Andrew Don, Chief Executive Officer at National Rural Utilities Cooperative Finance Corporation

Mission
Appreciation through Education

ThanksUSA provides need-based college, technical and vocational school scholarships and pathways to employment for children and spouses of our troops. Since 2006, more than $16 million has been awarded to families nationwide, representing all military branches.


​“By helping military dependents achieve their goals in higher education, you have honored the service of so many military members who have sacrificed to better the future of America.”

Scholar Adrienne, daughter of medically retired U.S. Marine
