ATHENA GRANT

The Athena Grant accepts applications year-round.

The Green Beret Foundation is committed to supporting spouses with diverse career aspirations. Recognizing that not all paths require a college degree, we proudly provide the Athena Grant. This initiative covers expenses for vocational programs and professional development, ensuring every spouse has the opportunity to pursue their dreams.

  • Funds cannot be used for study materials, tests, books, or housing.
  • Spouses may apply for the Athena Grant once per rolling year and up to twice in a lifetime.
