WeSalute Featured for Uniting Military, Veterans, Nurses, and First Responders Through Exclusive Benefits
WeSalute Strengthens Its Commitment to Supporting Important Service Groups with Discounts, Community, and Recognition
WeSalute, a leading organization dedicated to supporting active-duty military, veterans, nurses, and first responders, is proud to announce its being featured in a newly published spotlight article. The article highlights WeSalute’s unique approach to providing exclusive benefits and discounts, fostering service community connections, and recognizing exceptional service through its awards program.
Founded in 2000 by Vietnam veteran Scott Higgins and his spouse, Lin, WeSalute has spent over 25 years creating a network of resources designed to honor the sacrifices of those who serve. In the article, WeSalute’s founders discuss their unwavering commitment to offering real value through a variety of services and partnerships that go beyond traditional discounts.
“We knew that a simple thank you wasn’t enough,” said Scott Higgins, the Executive Chair of WeSalute. “From the start, we aimed to offer more — real benefits that make a difference in enhancing the lives of service members and their families. It’s about giving back in a meaningful and trusted way with A Real Thank You®.”
The article outlines how WeSalute’s benefits program addresses the unique challenges faced by active-duty military, military veterans, nurses, and first responders, including frequent moves, long deployments, and the stress of balancing high-pressure jobs with their personal lives. Through partnerships with major brands, WeSalute offers exclusive benefits on essential goods and services such as food, travel, insurance, and healthcare, providing financial empowerment and peace of mind for those who serve.
Creating a Platform for Recognition
In addition to financial benefits, WeSalute has built a recognition platform where WeSalute Members can gain community support, celebrate fellow achievements, and be inspired by those who truly exemplify the meaning of service.
“We believe in creating a space where service members are not only eligible for the exclusive discounts and benefits they deserve, but also where their service is recognized and saluted everyday,” said CEO Lin Higgins. “It’s about the acknowledgement that giving of yourself in service and making a difference in the lives of others is important and that your service is significant to our security and well-being.
The article also covers WeSalute’s focus on recognition through the WeSalute Awards program, which rewards outstanding achievements by both active duty and military veterans. This program allows WeSalute to honor military veterans, who after leaving military service, continue to serve in their communities or nationwide. WeSalute Award recipients have made significant contributions that have had an impact in business, or their respective professions, and this award gives them the recognition they deserve.
Financial Empowerment for Enhanced Lifestyles
The WeSalute article highlights the financial, career, and educational advantages available to its members. With access to jobs from military-friendly employers, inspiring stories of thriving veterans, and a savings program with nearly 1,500 offers, WeSalute empowers members to do more, have more, and enjoy more in recognition of their service.
“We’re not just here to help members get by—we’re here to help them get ahead,” said Scott Higgins. “We provide benefits, tools, resources, and connections so that WeSalute Members experience greater respect, recognition, and rewards throughout their lives.”
