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.
