Seattle Pacific University is committed to supporting its diverse military and veterans' community. Student veterans’ unique experiences often make achieving a degree in higher education challenging. As nontraditional students, they often live off campus and miss out on opportunities for connection. To help student veterans achieve academic success, SPU provides various resources, as well as a reliable community student veterans can turn to for support. Events held throughout the school year allow our veterans to find camaraderie as they navigate from service into the classroom.
SPU's veterans and military/veteran community need support in achieving their academic goals, and they benefit when schools have effective veteran resources.
This Giving Day, the SPU Veteran Community would greatly benefit from funds that support the following initiatives:
- Graduation stoles to honor prior service ($30 per stole)
- Veteran events and programs on campus
- Weekly lunches
- Educational supplies
- Grab-and-go snacks
