Based in Macungie, PA, Financial Assistance for Military Families, a program of the American Red Cross, is dedicated to providing unwavering support to military families in times of crisis. We partner with military aid societies to offer reliable financial assistance 24/7/365, ensuring that eligible service members have access to vital help when they need it most. Our program covers a range of emergency needs, including funds for emergency travel, burial costs, and immediate food and shelter assistance. While we facilitate the application process, the military aid society evaluates eligibility and determines the appropriate financial support package. Service members can submit requests online or through the American Red Cross Hero Care Center, where our caring representatives are ready to assist with all necessary information.
