VETERANS DAY FUNDRAISING EVENT
DO YOU WANT TO BE A PATRIOTS PATH CHAMPION?
|
|
In honor of National Military Family Month and National Gratitude Month, we are hosting a Crowdfunding Event – and we need your help.
Here's how it works: Let us know your interest in spreading the word about Patriots Path, and we will send you an informational kit with everything you need to post to your Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, or Instagram account on behalf of Patriots Path.
A big thank you to all of the Patriots Path alumni who have already volunteered to spread the word about Patriots Path.

CONGRATULATIONS!
PATRIOTS PATH GRADUATES

We are so pleased to share that two of these students received job offers the week of the course! All of these Veterans are awesome, and they are doing a wonderful job putting their best brands out there in the market. Organizations are in need of talented people like this. |

If you are looking for top talent... and I mean TOP talent,
Veterans and Military Spouses will add value across the board.
Thanks to these amazing folks for their energy and enthusiasm and
thanks to Caffey Distributing for making our November course possible.
