In Rockville, MD, Financial Assistance for Military Families, an initiative of the American Red Cross, is dedicated to providing essential financial support to military members and their families facing urgent hardships. Our program ensures reliable, 24/7 access to financial assistance for emergencies including travel, burial expenses, and urgent food and shelter needs. Partnering with military aid societies, we strive to make the application process as smooth as possible, while each military aid society determines eligibility and the specific financial package available. Eligible families can submit requests online or seek guidance through the American Red Cross Hero Care Center, ensuring that help is always within reach when it matters most.
