Army Emergency Relief
At Army Emergency Relief we help Soldiers and Families like you and yours everyday with scholarships, grants, and loans that are always free of interest and fees.
Requests for AER assistance are processed at any of the 76 AER Sections located on Army installations around the world. If you are not located near an Army installation with an AER Section, AER assistance can be obtained at the nearest Air Force, Navy/Marine Corps, or Coast Guard Installation through their Military Aid Society Office. In the absence of a local Military Aid Society, AER assistance is available by calling the American Red Cross at 1-877-272-7337, and then selecting option 3 for financial assistance.
