Every day, service members, Veterans, and their families rise to the challenge of maintaining a healthy lifestyle while facing the unique trials that come with having dedicated their lives in service to our nation. These families often face long deployments and separation, and many must cope with the long-term effects associated with service.

Newman’s Own, Fisher House Foundation, and Military Times (Gannett Government Media Corporation) join together in presenting $100,000 in grants to the most creative military quality of life improvement plans. Complete the online application and tell us about your innovative idea to improve the quality of life for military families, and your organization could be awarded up to $25,000 in funding.

Illinois Campus Compact is a tremendous resource for connecting with people in (and outside of) the state. Having their office located on our campus has been an extra benefit for those of us working on service-learning and civic engagement projects."
