Bringing our most junior service members home for moments that matter

Enhancing combat effectiveness via connectivity.

THE RESULT

Strengthening family relationships enhances military mission readiness

Across all branches of the U.S. military, there are roughly 500,000 of the most junior service members, spanning the ranks of E-1 to E4. Military service requires men and women to travel far from home. Service members have to pay for their own travel home, which can create major challenges. Miles for Military was started to help bridge this gap.

New Partnership Announcement

Empower, a leading workplace solutions provider and wealth manager announced on April 16, 2026, it would be supporting Miles for Military.

“Empower supports veterans and military families through workplace programs designed to help them transition and thrive.  We all look forward to seeing MFM continue to grow and achieve the success they have had by making a difference for those who serve.” President and CEO Edmund F. Murphy, III at Empower.
