What is #VetsGraduate?

#VetsGraduate is a community initiative by Chak Files, dedicated to honoring the achievements of veterans pursuing higher education. This program offers free graduation photography sessions for veterans in the Tallahassee area who are earning their bachelor's, master's, or PhD degrees.

As a proud member of the Air Force National Guard, I understand the immense sacrifices veterans make to serve our country. #VetsGraduate is my way of giving back, ensuring these heroes are celebrated and remembered as they reach these monumental milestones. At Chak Files, we are committed to shining a light on their resilience, dedication, and achievements.
