It's our way of saying 'thank you' for the sacrifices they make for our country."
Ashworth is also offering $25 Exchange gift cards to any military personnel, veterans and military spouses for each new student referral that enrolls during this promotional period. Those interested in learning more can call 888-203-7741.
