Temporary Financial Assistance (TFA)

At the American Legion Temporary Financial Assistance (TFA) program in Pasadena, MD, we are dedicated to providing crucial support to the minor children of active duty service members and American Legion members. Our mission is to help families create stable environments during challenging times by offering non-repayable cash grants of up to $1,500. These grants are designed to assist with essential needs such as shelter, food, utilities, and health expenses. We are committed to a thorough eligibility process that ensures every application is carefully reviewed at the local level, establishing a genuine need and ensuring that all other assistance avenues have been explored. By focusing on the welfare of children, we aim to alleviate the financial burdens on families who have given so much for our country.
