Valor & Unity Expo

The vision behind the Valor and Unity Expo is an exposition of military branches, university recruiters, and veterans where students and families can come out and speak to them to have an overall better understanding of their options post-secondary. The event will also include competitive events, workshops, and keynote speeches to further the education and foster competitiveness in the community of Miami Dade County. The motive for the creation of the event is to raise awareness on the major issues that plague the veteran community, further the education of the community on these issues, and a demonstration of all post-secondary options for families.

No Veteran Left Behind – Veterans Day 2024

Mark Pinilla, Founder of Vet Info, spoke at Miami Dade College’s West Campus on Monday, November 4th, in honor of Veterans Day.

This day holds deep significance as a time to remember, reflect, and show respect for the countless men and women who have served and sacrificed for our nation. Veterans Day offers us a moment to recognize the bravery, commitment, and resilience of those who dedicated themselves to protecting our freedoms and ensuring our country’s security. As a nation, it is essential that we express our gratitude, not only by saluting our veterans but by acknowledging the sacrifices they and their families have made. Thank you to those who paid tribute to their invaluable contributions.
