Academy of United States Veterans

The Academy of United States Veterans strives to highlight and recognize non-profit organizations that dedicate their selfless service to achieving a positive impact on Veterans' lives across the United States through Public Relations, Media Relations and Community Outreach. AUSV educates our national community on the necessities of our Veterans by illuminating the work of such organizations.
We provide an open forum for Veteran Service Organizations to network and communicate to maximize our collective impact through collaboration and cooperation. By bringing together likeminded philanthropists and shining a light on impactful organizations through recognition, we encourage their promise to the Veterans community.
