VetsFirst expressed its gratitude to the AGMA Foundation for its generosity in providing disabled veterans the opportunity to reintegrate into society by gaining an education in the field of technology.

The AGMA Foundation awards scholarships directly to the educational institution to cover expenses such as tuition, room and board, textbooks and materials, and other expenses related to achieving a degree.
