Our History

 EANGUS


The Enlisted Association of the National Guard of the United States (EANGUS) and the We Care for America Foundation (WCFA) dba National Guard Relief Foundation (NGRF) are united by a shared mission: to support and empower National Guard service members, their families, and veterans during times of need. Together, they provide critical financial assistance and resources to ensure the well-being of those who serve our nation.

Our Shared Mission


EANGUS established WCFA as its charitable arm to serve the National Guard community. With a legacy of advocacy, EANGUS focuses on improving the lives of enlisted service members and their families, while NGRF operates programs that address financial hardships and provide direct relief.  



The National Guard Relief Fund (NGRF)

The NGRF is a cornerstone of our partnership. This program offers financial assistance to National Guard service members and their families facing emergencies such as natural disasters, medical crises, or unexpected financial hardships. Whether it’s through grants or zero-interest loans, the NGRF ensures that help is available when it’s needed most.
