Emergency Financial Assistance
We are committed to doing what we can to support Florida’s active duty military members, veterans, and their families, but resources are limited.
We are grateful for the Florida Legislature, private donations and grants that help to support these financial efforts that will help service members who are experiencing a hardship during this time.
If you are a donor, please find it in your heart to donate so that we can make a greater impact and support all service members who need us during this chaotic time.
