Referral Partner Highlight: Pen Fed Foundation – Military Heroes Fund
Pen Fed Foundation’s Military Heroes Fund provides wounded veterans, military families, and caregivers with financial assistance to help fill the critical gap that exists for many veterans when transitioning back to civilian life. The foundation focuses its support for our warriors that struggle with financial hardship while also experiencing physical and psychological challenges. Through their partnership with ClearPoint, they also provide the crucial and often overlooked financial counseling component to match any cash assistance they are able to provide. The Military Heroes Fund also provides additional support for military caregivers by assisting with childcare costs while wounded veterans in their care receive medical services, whether at the VA or the private sector. This impactful organization continues to provide essential resources and has received nearly 60 referrals from RRRP. The Military Heroes Fund has successfully intervened to help keep our clients and their families housed, prevented utility shut-offs and stepped in to assist with auto and insurance payments, thus greatly contributing to their overall financial well-being.
