Based in Dundalk, MD, Financial Assistance for Military Families, a program of the American Red Cross, is dedicated to providing vital financial support to eligible military personnel and their families during times of crisis. We understand that emergencies can strike at any moment, which is why our services are available 24/7 throughout the year. Our compassionate team partners with military aid societies to offer assistance for emergency needs, including funds for urgent travel, burial expenses, and emergency food and shelter. While we facilitate the application process, military aid societies determine eligibility and the specific support offered. Military families can easily submit requests online or reach out to the American Red Cross Hero Care Center for assistance. We’re here to ensure that every military family has access to the help they need when they need it most.
