OGN Mentors
Operation Grateful Nation was founded by a group of highly successful business persons who have a wealth of experience, knowledge and contacts beneficial to disabled veterans in providing possibilities for a dignified future. Quite literally, any type of business in which a veteran would like to be involved can be accessed through the vast network of OGN.

Whether the disabled veteran starts a new business or is placed in an existing company, he or she is provided with a mentor who accepts substantial responsibility to help train, educate and promote professional development of his or her assigned veteran.
