{Many first responders enter the profession without completing a four year degree but still strive for that goal in their life. But working full time and going to school can be so challenging. My husband and I have been navigating this extra schedule and financial commitment for a decade now. This is why when we have partners like MVNU step up and offer flexibility and financial support, we like to give a big shout out. Check out the details on their new program helping first responders complete their Bachelors. ~ Dan & Lori Mercer, co-founders 247COMMITMENT.org }
