Military Assistance Mission is proud to announce a new program for our Veterans and Reserve Service Members.

The GI Gap Grant (GIGG) is a program that helps Transitioning Active Duty and Reserve Service Members when they begin college after service.

We understand that hardships can happen and MAM is here to help.
