Founded by MajGen John Lejeune in 1923; for over 100 years we continue to stand proud as a veteran’s service organization.
Semper Fi & America’s Fund
Our programs are designed with a commitment to those we serve. The Fund is dedicated to providing immediate financial assistance and lifetime support to our Nation’s critically wounded, ill, and injured service members, veterans, and military families.
We operate our programs and services through a “needs-based” approach. Staff and volunteers work one-on-one with our service members, veterans, and military families – providing ongoing support for as long as legitimate needs require.
Experienced at anticipating needs, our case managers often introduce new programs to further assist service members and military families throughout the journey to recovery and transition back into their communities.
The Fund processes, on average, 170 grant requests each day. We typically deliver assistance within 24-48 hours of receiving an emergency request and within a week for non-urgent cases.
