Bowling Green Businessman Awards Veterans' Grant

{Radcliff, Kentucky}...USA Cares, a Kentucky-based non-profit organization that helps military veterans across the country, has received a $100,000 grant donated by Bowling Green businessman and philanthropist Terry Scariot. The grant will go to veterans who are one year away from graduating from Western Kentucky University or any of the 16 schools in the Kentucky Community and Technical College System to help them get jobs. The fund will be administered through the Jobs for Vets program, which USA Cares started in March to help provide employment support. The grant is established as the Sgt. Bryan Anderson Jobs for Kentucky Veterans Fund, in honor of Anderson, 26, a Chicago native who became a multiple amputee because of a bomb explosion in Iraq in 2005. Anderson is the national spokesman for USA Cares.
