Mrs. Mary Jo Myers Scholarship Fund

Mary Jo Myers is a founding member of ThanksUSA’s Advisory Council. She is an educator with an extensive background in public service as a champion for military, education, and humanitarian causes. She has been a military spouse for more than 40 years, married to General Richard B. Myers, USAF (Ret), 15th Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. 
“Education opens doors to new opportunities, but it also becomes a path of necessity. With many injured service men and women undergoing months and years of recovery from injuries sustained in battle, the spouse may become the primary wage earner in the family. 
​
Education can be the key to supporting a family as well as ​a more fulfilling future.”
