Overview

Mission

Armed forces reserve family assistance (afrfaf)is a philanthropic organization that provides short term financial support to members of all branches of the national guard and reserve. Afrfaf provides support to service members whose financial emergencies arise due to their deployments or service-connected disability. Our support pays a specific one-time need such as rent/mortgage, vehicle repairs, or unreimbursed medical expenses.

What it reported doing in 2024

Our main program is to identify service members who have a short term need in the size range we can assist. Our program helps identified service members pay bills and to get back to a stable financial position. Locating such folks is done by our afefaf.org website, referral from other military-related organizations such as wounded warriors or unit chaplains and family readiness group coordinators.
