Financial Assistance

Army Emergency Relief (AER) is dedicated to providing essential financial assistance to eligible veterans and their families in Manitou Springs, CO. Our mission is to support those who have served by offering expedited help in times of need. We provide financial aid in the form of interest-free loans, grants, or a combination of both to meet urgent requirements. Whether you are facing emergency needs for rent, utilities, medical expenses, vehicle repairs, or even funeral costs, we are here to assist you. Typically, support can be accessed on the same day or within 24 to 48 hours of your request, ensuring that help is prompt when it’s needed most. To qualify, veterans must document their specific needs, including a valid military ID and relevant financial records. AER is committed to alleviating financial burdens and helping our veterans navigate through challenging times with care and efficiency.
