READ THE STORY 2024 NFL® SALUTE TO SERVICE AWARD Aaron Jones, Sr., a celebrated NFL running back and tireless advocate for veteran entrepreneurs and military families, continues to redefine what it means to lead both on and off the field. This year, Jones' extraordinary efforts were recognized with two major honors: the Jeff Shuford Empowerment Through Advocacy Award from National Invest In Veterans Week® and his selection as the Minnesota Vikings’ nominee for the 2024 NFL Salute to Service Award. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 👉 Read the Story * "GROWING UP AS A MILITARY BRAT, MY PARENTS SERVED A COMBINED 56 YEARS. THEY PUT THEIR LIFE INTO IT. FOR ME TO STILL BE ABLE TO REPRESENT THEM IN THAT WAY AND GET THIS NOMINATION, I KNOW MY PARENTS ARE VERY PROUD OF ME." Aaron Jones | NFL Star Item 1 of 1 * "VETERANS HAVE ALWAYS FOUGHT FOR US, AND NOW IT’S OUR TURN TO FIGHT FOR THEM. THROUGH LEGISLATIVE ADVOCACY AND COMMUNITY SUPPORT, WE’RE BUILDING A STRONGER, BRIGHTER FUTURE FOR VETERAN ENTREPRENEURS NATIONWIDE." Lonnell McCall | Sr. Spokesperson * "THE SERVICE-DISABLED VETERAN OPPORTUNITIES IN SMALL BUSINESS ACT IS A GROUNDBREAKING PIECE OF LEGISLATION THAT LEVELS THE PLAYING FIELD FOR DISABLED VETERAN ENTREPRENEURS. BY INCREASING ACCESS TO GOVERNMENT CONTRACTS, THE ACT ENSURES THAT SERVICE-DISABLED VETERANS HAVE EQUITABLE OPPORTUNITIES TO GROW THEIR BUSINESSES AND CONTRIBUTE TO THE ECONOMY." LTC Rickey L. Pope (Ret.) | CEO * "VETERAN-OWNED BUSINESSES ACCOUNT FOR OVER $1 TRILLION IN ANNUAL REVENUE. THIS ACT ENSURES THAT SERVICE-DISABLED VETERANS, WHO OFTEN FACE UNIQUE CHALLENGES TRANSITIONING TO CIVILIAN LIFE, CAN ACCESS THE RESOURCES THEY NEED TO SUCCEED." Drayton Florence | Co-founder * "AS A MILITARY SPOUSE AND RESERVIST, I UNDERSTAND THE SACRIFICES THAT FAMILIES MAKE AND THE STRENGTH VETERANS BRING TO THE TABLE. NATIONAL INVEST IN VETERANS WEEK® IS A PLATFORM THAT AMPLIFIES THOSE STRENGTHS, CONNECTING OUR COMMUNITY TO RESOURCES AND RECOGNITION THEY DESERVE. BEING PART OF THIS TEAM IS DEEPLY PERSONAL—IT’S ABOUT ENSURING EVERY VETERAN’S STORY IS HEARD AND CELEBRATED." Angel Shuford | CFO * "DISABLED VETERANS BRING UNIQUE SKILLS AND RESILIENCE TO THE BUSINESS WORLD, DRIVING PROGRESS AND CREATING OPPORTUNITIES FOR COMMUNITIES EVERYWHERE." CPT. Sherman Williams (Ret.) | Director * "BY CELEBRATING VETERAN ENTREPRENEURS AND THEIR CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE ECONOMY, NATIONAL INVEST IN VETERANS WEEK® ALIGNS WITH LEGISLATIVE GOALS TO REDUCE UNEMPLOYMENT, INCREASE MINORITY BUSINESS OWNERSHIP, AND FOSTER ECONOMIC RESILIENCE IN UNDERREPRESENTED COMMUNITIES." Pastor Ron Henson | Chaplain * "NATIONAL INVEST IN VETERANS WEEK® PLAYED A CRITICAL ROLE IN AMPLIFYING VETERANS' VOICES, ENSURING LAWMAKERS UNDERSTOOD THE URGENCY OF SUPPORTING INITIATIVES LIKE THE SERVICE-DISABLED VETERAN OPPORTUNITIES ACT." Jeff Shuford | Visionary Co-Founder * "AS A COMPLETELY SELF-FUNDED INITIATIVE, NATIONAL INVEST IN VETERANS WEEK® HIGHLIGHTS THE STRENGTH OF GRASSROOTS MOVEMENTS TO DRIVE MEANINGFUL CHANGE, OFFERING A MODEL FOR FUTURE COMMUNITY-LED EFFORTS." Angel Shuford | CFO * "FOUNDED BY JEFF SHUFORD, A BLACK COMBAT VETERAN AND VISIONARY ENTREPRENEUR, NATIONAL INVEST IN VETERANS WEEK® REPRESENTS A GROUNDBREAKING STEP IN RECOGNIZING THE CONTRIBUTIONS OF VETERANS WHILE ALSO SHOWCASING THE POWER OF BLACK ENTREPRENEURSHIP TO DRIVE SOCIAL IMPACT."
