VFW Unmet
Needs was
created in 2004 through
a corporate partnership
to assist military
service members and
their families who run
into unexpected
financial difficulties
as a result of
deployment or other
hardships directly
related to military
service.
Unmet Needs
assists with basic
life needs such as:
mortgage and rent, home
and auto repairs,
insurance, utilities,
food and clothing.
Unmet Needs
helps meet unanticipated
financial demands on our
service members'
families that can't be
remedied through
existing means and
provides our service
members with the
security of knowing that
their families have
additional support here
at home.
The financial assistance
is in the form of up to
$2,500 in grants that do
not need to be repaid.
All grants are paid
directly to the
"creditor" (such as the
electric company), and
not to the individual.
Each case is reviewed
individually and
acceptance determined by
a committee.
Eligible service members
can download and
complete a grant
application.
