In times of unexpected financial challenges faced by our active-duty service members and their families, the VFW's Unmet Needs program stands ready to provide crucial assistance. Whether due to deployment, military-related activity, or injury, we believe that financial difficulties should not be an additional burden for those who serve.

Unmet Needs offers grants, not loans, of up to $2,500 to support daily necessities. Importantly, these grants do not require repayment, and we further streamline the process by directly paying the creditor(s). Our commitment is clear: the needs of our active-duty service members and their families should never go unmet. Let the VFW offer you a hand-up when you need it most.

For additional details and to determine eligibility for the Unmet Needs program, please review our eligibility criteria. Your well-being is our priority, and we are here to provide meaningful support during challenging times.
