Washington, D.C. May 12, 2022—- The Women Veterans Interactive Foundation’s (WVIF) inaugural Nolij Consulting Women Veterans IMPACT Awards and Fundraising Gala will celebrate the service and sacrifice of women veterans and recognize champions making an impact in their lives while fostering a community for change.

“As a woman-owned and led organization with a mission to improve the health of our servicepersons and veterans, we are excited about sponsoring the WVI annual gala. Women veterans sacrifice so much for our nation and face unique challenges as income earners and caretakers supporting children, parents and families. As a company we want to give back to our nation, our community and change the outcomes of women veterans’ lives,” said Ashley Mehta, Chairwoman, CEO, and President of Nolij Consulting.

There are more than 2 million women veterans living in the United States with many struggling with navigating the transition from military to civilian life and are the fastest-growing segment of the homeless population. A high percentage of women veterans suffer from military sexual trauma (MST), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and are at a risk of committing suicide due to lack of assistance for women veterans.

“As a formerly homeless, disabled veteran, I have an intimate understanding of the unique needs of women veterans and their children. These deserving women have earned our support. In that spirit of giving, we are honored to have Nolij Consulting as the Title Sponsor for our Women Veterans IMPACT Awards and Fundraising Gala. Ashley Mehta, CEO and President of Nolij, personifies the adage that ‘empowered women empower women,’” said Ginger Miller, Founder and CEO, Women Veterans Interactive Foundation and a Navy veteran. “Ashley dedicates her time, knowledge, and expertise as a board member of WVIF. We need more champions like her.”  Ms. Miller was recently appointed to United Service Organizations (USO) Board of Governors by President Biden and serves on the Northwest Federal Credit Union Advisory Board.

The inaugural Nolij Consulting Women Veterans IMPACT Awards and Fundraising Gala will take place on Saturday, June 11, 2022, at the Arlington Gateway Marriott in Arlington, Virginia.
