Giggle Academy and American Legion Charities have announced a $2 million partnership to launch a new scholarship initiative aimed at supporting American service members with collapsed disabilities through blockchain and AI education.
The program offers educational grants of up to $20,000 to military families, particularly disadvantaged students in services affected by death or disability in their duties. At the heart of this is the annual competition centered around practical blockchain and AI questions under the theme of “What’s broken and how do you fix it?”
Giggle Academy was founded in 2024 by Changpeng Zhao (CZ), founder of Tech Antrepreneur and Binance, offering an AI-powered education platform that is given free gaming that focuses on real-world work-rich skills such as emotional intelligence, finances, negotiations and technical literacy, without barriers to formal or expensive passage.
“I have chosen to start this scholarship program with children from US military families because I know what service these young people look like,” CZ said. “They have seen the costs up close, they have courage, discipline and often sadness, but they also have a culture of selfless leadership.
The initiative, which includes US 9/11 post military children and 750 million illiterate adults around the world, is aimed at addressing the long-standing educational gap, according to the announcement. American Legion has been supported by veterans for over a century and brings legacy and trust to this mission.
“Military families are sacrificed at the expense of serving, but often overlooked, especially when uniforms are removed,” American Legion said. “We are grateful that Giggle Academy has been joining us, giving life to our freedom and telling our children, ‘You will never forget.’ ”
The scholarship program links military children to next-generation learning tools and adaptation curriculum built for those facing the most challenging challenges of life.
“This partnership with Giggle Academy will help us to bring that commitment into the future, supplementing the old-fashioned service with cutting-edge access to education,” added American Legion. “Together, we are not only respecting sacrifices, we are not only building opportunities, we are one child at a time.”
