My music partner's daughter received a grant from American Legion Post 199 from their Oratorical and Scholarship Program to spend a week at the University of Alabama in Tuscaloosa and subsequently obtained a Presidential Award for the University of South Alabama. She just recently graduated nursing School and obtained her degree with a 4.0. The American Legion was instrumental in providing support that allowed her to gain her education and credentials without amassing a pile of student debt.
