Veterans Of Foreign Wars
Category: Homelessness & Poverty
DescriptionThe Organization is the nation’s largest organization of combat veterans. The Organization’s Unmet Needs program provides financial assistance of up to $5,000 to assist with basic life needs in the form of a grant, not a loan. Eligible expenses include housing and vehicle payments; utility and phone bills; food and incidentals; children’s clothing, food, diapers, school, and childcare; and medical bills, prescriptions, and eyeglasses. Each expense will be considered on a case-by-case basis, and payments will be made directly to the recipient’s creditors. The hardship must be the result of deployment, a military pay issue, or military-related illness or injury. Active and discharged military service members who have been deployed in the last six years and have run into unexpected financial difficulties as a result of deployment or other military-related activity, are eligible to apply. Additional information can be found on the Web site.
