Community Support

NVLF helps universities build a stronger community of supporters — alumni, donors and other allies — for military-connected students

ADVANCEMENT INSTITUTE

The National Veterans Leadership Foundation’s Advancement Institute is an annual gathering that brings together campus teams—including military-veteran directors, development officers, marketing experts, and career resource leaders—to enhance support for military-veteran students.

Through a combination of expert presentations and collaborative brainstorming sessions, participants develop actionable plans to elevate the support provided to military-affiliated students across their campuses. The Institute serves as a unique forum, uniting campus teams with the shared goal of amplifying both internal and external awareness and assistance for military-connected students.
