WASHINGTON, July 19 – The IFA Foundation announces the start of a new partnership with Defenders Gateway, a company launching an app that will honor members of the military, first responders and families of the fallen.


Defenders Gateway is a company committed to developing the largest national network of businesses and organizations that recognize and honor the sacrifice of our nation’s Defenders by extending discounts on their products, services and opportunities. Using a proprietary app, Defenders will be verified and can then search for businesses near them that offer them a discount. The app gives added visibility to businesses that choose to honor Defenders and serves Defenders by making sure they never miss out on redeeming discounts they are entitled to.


The VetFran program has secured exclusive discounted rates for VetFran member companies and their franchisees to join this network, making it easier to gain visibility in the veteran’s community. “Too many veterans miss out on these discounts by either not knowing about them or not knowing how to claim them, and Defenders Gateway hopes to bring together Defenders and those who honor them on a single platform,” said Carol Watanabe, CEO of Defenders Gateway.


VetFran member company locations that sign up by December 31st using the code “VetFran 2018” will receive the exclusive rate of $100 per location for 12 months.

Making it easier for our members to do right by veterans and keeping them informed of new platforms and opportunities is a part of our mission,” added Jeff Bevis, Chairman of the VetFran Committee.
