Military Heroes Individual Grants
Military Heroes Individual Grants are awarded to veterans facing extraordinary circumstances with costs that they are unable to afford on their own. Grant funds are awarded in two categories:
- personal emergencies, such as home repairs
- job or community leadership expenses, such as participation in training or travel to events.
Military Heroes Individual Grants do not cover medical bills, personal travel, cosmetic home improvements, funeral expenses, or disaster relief.
