Seal of Distinction Awards for veterans employment programs

Posted by Call of Duty Endowment on July 21, 2014

The Call of Duty Endowment is a nonprofit organization that aims to identify and fund best-in-class organizations to place twenty-five thousand veterans in jobs by the end of 2018. To that end, the endowment is inviting nominations for its 2014 Seal of Distinction awards.

Established in 2013, the annual program recognizes nonprofit veterans support organizations that demonstrate the highest levels of effectiveness in connecting recent military veterans with meaningful career opportunities. In addition to receiving the endowment’s seal of distinction, selected organizations will be awarded unrestricted grants of $30,000 , as well as operational advice and support, with the opportunity to receive additional restricted funding to encourage further growth.

To be eligible, nominees must be recognized as tax-exempt under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and have a mission that includes directly assisting unemployed veterans in finding jobs.

Visit the endowment’s website for complete program guidelines, information about last year’s recipients, and nomination instructions.

DEADLINE: AUGUST 5, 2014
