Emergency Veterans Fund
Who can apply: Eligible applicants are 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations or veteran organizations that may not be 501(c)(3) organizations but serve veterans as part of their mission. Requests must address an emergency need of a veteran who lives in the service area or an emergency need of a veteran program located in the service area. Organizations currently receiving FY 2026–2028 Community Impact Fund funding for their veterans' programs may not request funding for those programs, but may apply on behalf of an individual veteran. One approved mini grant per veteran is permitted during the pilot period, subject to limited case-by-case review for repeat requests. Grants are paid by ACH to the nonprofit organization, not directly to the veteran, and a follow-up report is required within two months.
Deadline: Applications are open September 1, 2026 through March 31, 2027. The pilot program runs from September 1, 2026 through March 31, 2027.
