AREA Scholarships: What They Do and How You Can Support Them

The AAFES Retired Exchange Association (AREA) Scholarship is a vital resource for aspiring students, made possible by the generosity of both active AAFES associates and retirees. This initiative supports the children of Exchange associates and military personnel, providing much-needed financial assistance as education costs continue to rise.

AREA is committed to not only maintaining these scholarships but also expanding annual awards and extending support to trade school students. This commitment underscores AREA’s dedication to fostering the next generation of leaders.

Contributions to this cause not only provide a tax deduction but also represent an investment in future opportunities. It’s a powerful way to give back and create a legacy of education.

For the latest scholarship criteria or to learn how you can contribute, please visit the program’s website at AAFES Retired Exchange Association and click on the Scholarships tab.
