“My dad, veteran Lance Corporal Jeffrey Frichner USMC, is disabled. Watching my father struggle with poor mental health and trauma from his military service inspired me to study psychology. A huge weight was lifted off my chest when I received the scholarship from the MCSF. The award has helped make it possible for me to major in Applied Psychology at NYU. On-campus I work with special education students, I have an internship working with the legally blind, and I volunteer at the local homeless shelter. I feel incredibly fortunate that I am able to study at the school of my dreams and I hope to express my gratitude by becoming a social worker. It is all the more meaningful to me that my education has been made financially possible because of the MCSF and my dad’s service.”

If You Can, You Must Scholarship Initiative

More than 14 years ago, Dakota Meyer, a U.S. Marine serving in the War in Afghanistan, risked his life to bravely save the lives of U.S. and Afghan forces in the Battle of Ganjgal. For his actions, he was awarded the Medal of Honor, the first living Marine in more than forty years to receive the award. Since leaving active duty, Dakota has embraced opportunities for continued service. Through his partnership with the Marine Corps Scholarship Foundation, the “If You Can, You Must” Scholarship will provide educational scholarships to the children of Marines and inspire the future leaders of America.
