Financial Assistance for Military Families

Financial Assistance for Military Families, a dedicated program of the American Red Cross in Bridgeton, MO, provides essential financial support to military families facing emergencies. We partner with military aid societies to ensure that eligible service members and their families receive timely assistance whenever they need it, 24/7 throughout the year. Our services cover a range of emergency needs, including travel costs, burial expenses for loved ones, and urgent food and shelter requirements. The Red Cross guides applicants through the process, while military aid societies determine eligibility and the specific assistance package. Families in need can easily submit their requests online or through our Hero Care Center, ensuring that those who serve our nation receive the help they deserve during challenging times.
