AWARDING EXCELLENCE | AFSA SUMMIT 26
-----------------------------------------------
Each year, the Air Force Sergeants Association (AFSA) proudly recognizes the individuals and organizations who exemplify dedication to our mission of supporting military members and their families, as well as the broader AFSA community.

During our International Convention/SUMMIT 26, we had the honor of celebrating those who go above and beyond in service, leadership, advocacy, and commitment to others. 🇺🇸

Through these prestigious awards, we recognize the people and organizations who make a lasting difference—strengthening our military community, championing the needs of our members and
families, and carrying forward the values AFSA inspires in us all.

To all of this year’s nominees and award recipients: THANK YOU. Your dedication to the mission, the military community, and AFSA does not go unnoticed. Your leadership and service inspire us to continue making a difference every day.

Veterans make up about 7% of the U.S. population, but represent 14% of America’s franchisees. That’s leadership translated into local business ownership, jobs, and stronger communities.

This year, VetFran marks 35 years of helping veterans and military families explore franchise opportunities. And the support continues: the U.S. Small Business Administration recently announced $1.05 million in grants for organizations providing specialized entrepreneurship training to veterans.

For service members planning their next chapter, business ownership can be another way to lead with purpose. Explore the resources, training, and mentorship available, and consider what your next mission could be.
