94.3 THE WOLF Country That'll Make You Howl!
Traditionally, those who donate to the Army Emergency Relief Campaign are military-affiliated, which is where the organization’s motto “Soldiers Helping Soldiers” comes from, but all are welcome to contribute to Fort Knox’s AER Campaign which is now under way.
“It’s a program designed to provide financial assistance to soldiers and their family members in a time of need,” said Fort Knox Garrison Commander Colonel Christopher Ricci. “This year’s campaign is set to run from March 1 to June 1.”
The program was established more than 80 years ago and supports soldiers and their families in a variety of ways.
“The Fort Knox AER program alone helped 447 soldiers and their families last year with over $746,000 in assistance,” said Ricci. “That included 206 grants, 224 loans, and 17 grant loan combinations, as well as scholarships totaling $344,000 for more than 100 spouses and children of soldiers.”
