Changpeng Zhao’s Giggle Academy & American Legion Launch $2M Blockchain Scholarship for Military Families

Giggle Academy and American Legion Charities have announced a $2 million partnership to launch a new scholarship initiative aimed at supporting the children of America’s fallen and disabled service members through education in blockchain and artificial intelligence (AI).

The program will provide up to $20,000 in educational grants to underserved students from military families, especially those impacted by the death or disability of a parent in the line of duty. At its core is an annual competition centered on practical blockchain and AI questions under the theme: “What’s broken, and how would you fix it?”

Founded in 2024 by tech entrepreneur and Binance founder Changpeng Zhao (CZ), Giggle Academy offers a free, gamified, AI-powered education platform focused on real-world, job-ready skills such as emotional intelligence, finance, negotiation, and tech literacy, without the barriers of formal schooling or expensive admissions.

“I chose to begin this scholarship program with the children of U.S. military families because these young people know what service looks like,” said CZ. “They’ve seen its cost up close. They carry with them courage, discipline, and often, grief—but also a culture of selfless leadership. If we’re starting from scratch to reimagine education for the underserved, let’s begin with the kids whose parents gave everything—and still fell through the cracks.”
