    Air National Guardsman Struggles After Stroke

    Your donation today is urgently needed to help keep this military family in their home. After passing out during drill due to what doctors believe was a stroke, this Air National Guardsman and single mom of four was put on medical leave, resulting in lost income. Because doctors haven't reached a diagnosis, a VA claim cannot be filed, and the Guardsman continues to get further behind on her mortgage. Your generosity today will make a huge difference in the lives of this family.

    Finance Office Delay Prevents Receipt of Benefits

    Backlogs in processing paperwork at the Defense finance office has delayed the office from creating the retirement account for this Navy sailor. It has been several months, and the delay is now creating a situation where a smooth transition has become more challenging due to the financial strain from being unable to receive her benefits, benefits she earned in a career of service to our country. We are asking for a gift to help with housing and utility expenses to give her the stability she needs at this critical time.
