Help for Service Members

 

Military families have more to think about with deployments and even training that can take our spouses away for weeks and sometimes months at a time.  Many spouses quickly learn to become self sufficient with many fixing their own plumbing problems, changing the oil in the cars and handling hundreds of other issues that arise.

 

Sometimes, issues can cost money.  No matter where one is in their military career, major expenses can arise which you may not be able to afford.  So what can you do?

 

For Soldiers and their families, that is where Army Emergency Relief comes in.  AER is amazing!  They provide scholarships, grants and 0% loans for soldiers and their families. They now have direct access so soldiers are not required to go through their command.  Did you know that AER can also help retirees?  This is a great benefit.  

 

 

 

 

"I sat in their office yesterday when a spouse called in requesting to defer a loan payment. She just started a new job and paycheck was very small. Her husband (retired Army) has been ill and can not work. Without hesitation the manager of that group said “consolidate their two loans, decrease their monthly payment and defer it for 3 months”. So heartwarming to watch how much they truly to care." - Krista Anderson
