Congratulations, Major Jas Boothe — Honorary Doctorate in Humanitarianism! 🎓💛
We are incredibly proud to announce that Major Jas Boothe, President and Founder of Final Salute Inc. has been awarded an Honorary Doctorate in Humanitarianism. This prestigious recognition was presented on August 1, 2026, at Georgia Tech University by the Global International Alliance University (GIA) — an organization representing leaders from over 190 countries who are committed to advancing humanitarian efforts worldwide.
For 16 years, Major Boothe has elevated the national platform for homeless women veterans and their children, building a movement that changed the landscape of veteran support in America. Her leadership is rooted in her unwavering commitment to “Never Leave a Fallen Comrade,” a promise she has lived out through every program, every initiative, and every life Final Salute Inc. has touched.
Her story is one of extraordinary triumph — surviving Hurricane Katrina, battling cancer, and rising from devastation to create one of the most influential women‑veteran organizations in the nation. She turned her pain into purpose, her struggle into service, and her voice into a lifeline for thousands.
Today, we honor Dr. Jas Boothe not only for what she has accomplished, but for the legacy she continues to build.
A humanitarian. A visionary. A warrior for women who served.
Congratulations, Dr. Boothe — this honor is deeply earned and profoundly deserved.
