Fort Stewart Consolidated – With military spouse unemployment far outpacing the national average, the Army & Air Force Exchange Service is reinforcing its commitment to hiring Veterans and military spouses.
With 68,000 Veterans and military spouses hired since 2013, the Exchange remains a vital force multiplier—offering meaningful careers that bring financial stability to military families and strengthen force readiness, retention and lethality.
The Fort Stewart Consolidated Exchange has openings for roving store workers, laborers, stockers and customer service positions.
“Veterans and military spouses are a driving force at the Exchange,” said Fort Stewart Consolidated GM, Bettina Ciciriello-Frederick. “Their dedication, resilience and experience power our mission and help us take care of the military community.”
When Veterans join the Exchange as full-time associates, their military service time can be used toward their Exchange retirement benefit.
For military spouses, the Associate Transfer Program allows military spouses to continue their Exchange career as they move from duty station to duty station with their military service members, which is key to maintaining financial security and force retention.
The Exchange continues to receive industry recognition for its commitment to providing meaningful opportunities for Veterans and military spouses. Accolades include:
· Gold Military Friendly® Employers and Military Spouse Friendly® Employers by Viqtory media.
· Best for Vets Employer by Military Times.
· Top Veteran-Friendly Employer, by U.S. Veterans Magazine in the Top Government and Law Enforcement Agencies category.
· Top Milspouse Employer by U.S. Veterans Magazine in its inaugural survey.
· VETS Indexes 5-Star Employer.

Fort Stewart Consolidated — For 251 years, the Army has taken care of its own. Throughout June, Army & Air Force Exchange Service shoppers can continue that tradition with a $2.51 donation to Army Emergency Relief (AER)one cent for every year of service.
Starting May 29, authorized shoppers visiting the Installation PX or Expresses can add a $2.51 contribution at the register, including self-checkout, to AER—the official nonprofit charity of the Army that benefits Soldiers and their families with financial challenges associated with emergencies, education and unexpected challenges.
“The Fort Stewart Exchange is all in to take care of Soldiers and their families,” said Fort Stewart Consolidated Exchange General Manager Bettina Cicicirello-Frederick “Army Emergency Relief is a vital resource for Soldiers facing challenging moments. It is an honor to connect people to a cause that makes a difference in our community.”
In 2025, shoppers donated more than $2.5 million to military relief organizations, including $1.5 million to AER, and additional contributions to the Air Force Aid Society and the Navy-Marine Corps Relief Society. Since 2017, shoppers have donated a total of $15.4 million to military relief organizations, more than $9 million of which has gone directly to AER.
“The generosity of Exchange shoppers has made a real difference in the lives of Soldiers and their families,” said retired Sgt. Maj. of the Army Tony Grinston, AER CEO. “No Soldier should have to face a crisis alone. Every donation allows AER to be there for Soldiers and their families when they need it most.”

Fort Stewart Consolidated – As the Nation celebrates the Army’s 250th birthday, the Fort Stewart Consolidated community can make a big difference with a small symbolic gift while shopping at the Exchange in June.
In recognition of the oldest U.S. armed service branch’s 250th birthday on June 14, authorized shoppers can make a $2.50 donation to Army Emergency Relief at Army & Air Force Exchange Service in-store registers, including self-checkout, throughout the month of June.
Army Emergency Relief was founded in 1942 by then-Secretary of War Henry Stimson and Army Chief of Staff General George Marshall and supports the well-being of Soldiers, retired Soldiers and Army Families by helping alleviate financial stress and promoting economic stability.
“Through zero-interest loans, grants, and educational scholarships, AER assists Soldiers facing financial hardship,” said retired Sgt. Maj. of the Army Michael A. Grinston, AER CEO. “As the Army marks 250 years of bravery and service, AER is ‘Honoring the Past — Securing the Future’ and encouraging all Soldiers and Soldiers for Life to make a special $2.50 donation on their next visit to the Exchange.”
In 2024, Exchange shoppers donated more than $2.7 million to AER, the Air Force Assistance Fund and Navy-Marine Corps Relief Society. Since 2017, donations to all three have totaled nearly $11.8 million.

Be vigilant! Spot scam and fraud attempts targeting: Read more
Fort Stewart Consolidated – Consumers incurred $12.5 billion in losses to scams and fraud in 2024, a significant 25% increase from the prior year, according to a March report from the Federal Trade Commission (FTC). Some of the most reported scams are increasingly targeting those who serve or have served.
Since 2020, active-duty service members, Veterans, retirees, Reservists and military family members have lost more than $780 million to scams including business and government imposters, online shopping scams along with prizes, sweepstakes and lottery fraud, the FTC reported.
“With the massive increase in scam and fraud attempts and the losses that come with them, it is vital for the Fort Stewart Consolidated community to stay vigilant,” Fort Stewart Consolidated Exchange General Manager Bettina Ciciriello-Frederick said. “At the Fort Stewart Consolidated Exchange, we are committed to helping authorized shoppers avoid falling prey to scammers.”
When interacting with the Exchange online, shoppers should ensure that they are communicating with verified Exchange profiles or email addresses. For example, the Exchange’s Free Fridays promotion provides prizes to authorized shoppers who comment on the Exchange Facebook’s promotion post each week. The winners are contacted by direct message from the official Exchange Facebook account or by email from an official socialmedia@aafes.com address.
Social media scam attempts totaled the highest overall reported losses in 2024 according to FTC, with $1.9 billion lost. Scams on social media can make younger shoppers especially vulnerable, with 44% of total losses last year coming from those aged 20-29.
Other scams that have targeted military shoppers have included offers to broker the sale of cars, motorcycles or boats through their hard-earned Exchange benefit. The Exchange does not have the authority to sell vehicles in the continental U.S. and does not advertise vehicle sales in civilian outlets such as newspapers or magazines.
Authorized shoppers contacted by any third-party posing as the Exchange are advised to stop the interaction and contact Exchange customer service at 800-527-2345 (CONUS), 214-312-6690 (OCONUS) or visiting the Customer Service page here.
“Exchange shoppers must always exercise caution to avoid being taken advantage of by scammers,” Ciciriello-Frederick said. “Shoppers taking the time to ensure they are interacting with who they think they are goes a long way in ensuring they stay safe.”
