TIGERS salutes organizations initiating policies to onboard military men and women transitioning out of the service. From offering resources that provide teambuilding activities\u00a0<\/a>\u00a0\u00a0 and advancement opportunities to interactive employment workshops, these organizations are making a difference in the lives of military personnel and their families.<\/p>\n

A TIGERS Roar for Today\u2019s Youth<\/b><\/p>\n

TIGERS is also proud to recognize today\u2019s youth as they step up to the plate to volunteer their time and services for causes they are passionate about. From donating birthday presents to needy children to volunteering at homeless shelters, these kids are worth raving about. Our youth is also developing sustainable businesses that are not only profitable, but socially responsible as well. They are creating jobs such as innovating non-traditional agriculture practices to grow and harvest produce in a school-based greenhouse.<\/p>\n
