Honor The Sacrifice.
Since 2008, No Greater Sacrifice has committed $29 million to provide debt-free education for the children of America's bravest.
“Thanks to NGS, I’m able to pursue my education without the burden of debt. The people at NGS have been there for me every step of the way, offering support and guidance that make all the difference.”
Meet DianaNo Greater Sacrifice was born from a simple conviction: that the children of those who died or were severely wounded in service deserve every opportunity that sacrifice was meant to protect.
What we do
A scholar.
A mentor.
A debt-free degree.
We calculate exactly what’s left after every other source of aid and fund it — from enrollment to graduation — so no scholar carries debt because of a parent’s sacrifice. Then we pair every scholar with a dedicated mentor until the diploma is in their hands.
