We are too small to be able to assist every family that contacts us, we are so sorry! However, we work diligently each day to increase our funding which will allow us to serve more Veterans and First Responders in need.

We ask the questions in the request form to see if you qualify or have been assisted by us in the past, as we are not able to revisit any cases at this time.

We are also checking to see if we are able to assist or partially assist with your need and if not this information will help us to know what resources we should give to you.

The request form is not our application. If your request aligns with our requirements and our available funding, you will be guided to our application which is held within an encrypted portal.

To address the recent surge in requests, we will keep our request form open all day Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. On Monday morning the form will be closed until the following Friday morning. During Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, we will resolve as many cases as possible with the available funds at the time of the requests, Applicants will be notified via email if we are able to assist with their needs during the time that the form is closed and then the same process will begin again the following Friday morning.

 

 While we may not be able to help in every situation, we will guide you to other resources that might offer assistance. Your understanding and support mean a lot to us as it is our goal to serve as many of our Heroes as possible.
