To this day, the people of Georgia continue to honor their country and those who serve. When COVID-19 cases and deaths were at their worst in the state, the Georgia Red Cross Service to Armed Forces (SAF) Hero Care Network stepped up to help. A key member of that team was Evelyn Rollie, a proud Army veteran who first joined in the late 1960’s and continued her service to Atlanta’s active duty and veteran community as a social worker for decades after her military service career.

Over fifty years later, and now retired, Mrs. Evelyn Rollie still serves the men and women of the military as a Red Cross volunteer, continually giving back to those who have served and sacrificed for their country.

And she is not alone in her passion to serve the veteran community here in Georgia. With a deep and ongoing commitment to those who choose to serve, the Georgia Department of Veterans Service is committed to providing education benefits that help make it possible for veterans to make a successful transition to college so they can enjoy the kind of fulfilling careers they always dreamed of – just like Evelyn Rollie.

Georgia Department of Veterans Service (GDVS) Military Education Benefits

Of course, all veterans are eligible for numerous federal educational benefits. The GI Bill® is there to cover the entire cost of tuition at state schools for vets who meet the full eligibility requirements, and even pitches in to help with housing costs and more. But there’s even more assistance available to Georgia’s vets at the state level.
