The American Legion's Temporary Financial Assistance (TFA) program in Edgewood, MD, is dedicated to providing essential cash grants to minor children of active duty service members and American Legion members. By offering support for shelter, food, utilities, and health expenses, TFA helps families maintain stability during challenging times. Eligible families can receive a one-time, non-repayable grant of up to $1,500 for the benefit of their child or children. Each application is carefully reviewed at the post or department level to ensure a legitimate need is established, and all other assistance options have been considered. Our mission is to ensure that no child is left without the support they need during difficult situations.
