    We have 8 Beneficiaries:

    The MOAA Memphis Chapter awards a scholarship to a selected JROTC cadet each year who is enrolled in a ROTC program.  The cadet can re-qualify each year for 3 succeeding years.

    The Chapter has a scholarship fund, separate from other chapter funds, which is used for the payment to the applicable university. We solicit support to this program.

    2. ROTC and JROTC Units

    The MOAA Memphis Chapter supports ROTC and JROTC schools/units by working with the detachment senior instructor to select a deserving cadet for outstanding accomplishments. Our chapter is aligned with over 40 units in Tennessee and Mississippi.  We encourge funding from our members to help cover the cost of the medals and certificates which are presented every Spring.

    You can make a tax deductible donation by using the online function at the bottom of this page.

    4. Wreaths Across America

    While we have Veterans Day in the fall and Memorial Day in the spring, our servicemen and women sacrifice their time and safety every single day of the year, to preserve our freedoms. And in many homes across the U.S., every day there is an empty seat for one who is serving, or one who made the ultimate sacrifice for our country. That is why our mission to Remember, Honor and Teach lasts all year long, far beyond the single day in December when we coordinate wreath-laying ceremonies. All throughout the year, Wreaths Across America works in a number of ways to show our veterans and their families that we will not forget—we will never forget. Read on to see the many ways we Remember and Honor our veterans, and Teach the next generation to do the same.

    The Memphis MOAA Chapter supports the Wreaths Across America and encourges its members and the public to sponsor at least one wreath and to volunteer time in December for the laying of wreath.

    To make a donation, please vist MOAA Memphis TN0163
