May 2009
Dear Members and Other Friends,
It is with tremendous gratitude that I thank each of you — the men and women, corpora-
tions, and foundations — who have given so generously to the MOAA Scholarship Fund.
As you read our Annual Report to Donors, I know you will be encouraged by the stu-
dents whose opportunity for an undergraduate education would not have been possible
without your fi nancial support.
Our vision is to embrace the role education has played and will continue to play in build-
ing the future of this great nation through our interest-free loans and grants. Your annual
contributions, workplace-giving campaigns, and estate gifts will ensure the continuity of
our educational assistance, especially through these challenging economic times.
Thank you for all you did in 2008. Your generous and loyal commitment to educating the
children of men and women who have served, are serving, and will serve our country is
inspiring. With your continued help, we look forward to a most successful 2009!
Sincerely
Vice Adm. Norb Ryan Jr., USN-Ret.
President, MOAA
