Real Impact. Real Families
In 2024, your support helped us deliver over $1.58 million in emergency assistance to Guard families facing crisis.

Behind every number is a Guard member or spouse who didn't have to face hardship alone.

Supporting Our Heroes
Right now, National Guard members are serving away from home—supporting communities impacted by recent storms, responding to emergencies, and standing ready wherever they’re needed.
While they serve, many face unexpected hardships at home.
The National Guard Relief Foundation is the only organization that assists Guard members regardless of their status—including part-time, full-time, deployed, and recently transitioned personnel—as well as their spouses and families.
Mobilized to Serve, Backed by Your Support
Your donation provides direct financial relief for things like:
- Emergency lodging and supplies
- Travel assistance for separated families
- Temporary loss of income due to deployment
- Storm-related recovery expenses
“Our mission is to ensure that no Guardsman faces hardship alone—especially while serving on the front lines of disaster response. We are proud to work just as hard to support them.” – NGRF Director
Why Donate to NGRF?
We serve the whole Guard family—not just certain ranks or statuses.
Every dollar goes directly to families in need—our administrative costs are minimal and transparent.
We act fast—requests are reviewed personally and resolved quickly by our director and support staff.
Real Support for the Realities of Guard Life
Many of our recipients fall through the cracks of traditional military relief programs. They may be part-time soldiers who don’t qualify for federal aid, or spouses of recently transitioned members who are suddenly without support. We make sure no Guard family faces hardship alone—no matter their paperwork, pay grade, or deployment status.
Your gift today helps Guard families stay strong while their loved ones serve.
