2025 Bunker Labs Ambassador Welcome

Welcome 2025 IVMF Bunker Labs Ambassadors

The D’Aniello Institute for Veterans and Military Families (IVMF) is proud to welcome the 60 members of our 2025 Bunker Labs Ambassador cohort! After a rigorous selection process, we’ve chosen individuals dedicated to helping veterans and military spouses navigate their post-service journey, no matter if that’s helping veterans and their families connect with resources or organizations, or helping entrepreneurs from our community make the right local connections so their business can thrive.

These individuals are about to embark on a huge undertaking on behalf of veterans and their families in their region. Each is already familiar with aspects of the veteran service ecosystem in their area, but they’re going to take that to another level over the next year. Each Ambassador undertakes an Ecosystem Leadership Project designed to help veterans and military families access new resources, or better access existing ones. They’ll receive advanced training in how to map and develop local resources over two fly-in training events, as well as monthly virtual sessions.

This is also the first year we’ve added the new Regional Lead Ambassador position. These experienced Ambassadors help support the other Ambassadors in their region to ensure they’re able to best support veterans and military families in their area, and get the most out of their Ecosystem Leadership Project.

Let’s Give a Warm Welcome

Join us as we welcome this new cohort of selfless leaders to the IVMF family. If you’re a business owner or relevant resource provider, we encourage you to reach out to your local Ambassador and let them know who you are, what you do, and what opportunities you’re looking for. We’d also encourage you to let them know what resources you might have to offer as a contact to someone with less experience.

 

Represent IVMF and Help Veterans as an Ambassador

If you have experience navigating your local veteran resource landscape and want to share what you’ve learned and serve others, you might be just the person we’re looking for to represent IVMF! As an Ambassador, you’re positioned at the center of your local veteran service organization ecosystem, where you’ll meet transitioning service members and their families, and up and coming veteran and military spouse entrepreneurs, and help them find solutions to a variety of challenges as they grow into their post-service lives and chase their American Dream. If this sounds like you, we’d encourage you to fill out an interest form for the next selection cycle of the Ambassador Program today!
