THE VIRGINIA NATIONAL GUARD FOUNDATION
In 1984 when the Adjutant General of Virginia, Major General John G. Castles, formed the Virginia National Guard Foundation Inc., it was to serve as a repository of funds to provide financial assistance for Guard members in their time of need. After 40 years of service, the foundation continues to provide emergency financial assistance to Virginia National Guard Service Members, families, and employees of the Virginia National Guard. This financial support helps them with emergency housing, utilities, repairs, and additional burdens placed on families associated with Federal and State deployments.
