For many of our Dog Tag Alumni, their time in the military builds the foundation for them to continue to thrive in their communities long after their service. DC Cohort 5 Alum and Army Veteran Nnana (Obi) Obioha is committed to a culture of service and tries to foster a value system that was instilled in him during his time in the military. Obi says, "Service is being reliable, dependable, accountable. As I am those things, I receive those things back to myself. If I’m serving the universe, the universe will serve me back." Through volunteer work at The Mission Continues, volunteering in Lagos, Nigeria, and more Obi is committed to this culture of service– serving others and yourself. Give with Purpose to support more veterans, spouses, and caregivers so that more military families can share their journey of service and community: https://bit.ly/3hlnlhz
About us
About Dog Tag Dog Tag empowers veterans with service-connected disabilities, military spouses, and caregivers to find renewed purpose and community through an entrepreneurial fellowship program. The Dog Tag Fellowship Program Dog Tag’s innovative approach consists of a five-month fellowship program that combines equal parts classroom, bakery, community, and wellbeing. Dog Tag fellows earn a certificate of business administration from Georgetown University or Loyola University Chicago; bring their coursework to life by learning the ins and outs of running a successful business in the bakery; build community with each other; and enhance their wellbeing by committing time to introspection and personal growth.

For many of our Dog Tag alumni, our program was one stop on their journey to becoming the best versions of themselves. DC Cohort 3 Alum peter scott used his military experience and the tools he gained in the Dog Tag Fellowship Program to launch his non-profit, Fields 4 Valor Farms, shortly after graduating from our program. Fields 4 Valor Farms Inc. is dedicated to ending hunger for veterans while providing them with an enriching and healing space to learn about farming. Catch Pete and a few of our other Dog Tag in a special piece on Dog Tag next week and our unique fellowship program.
