USA Cares Announces Details of Fort Hood Family Emergency Fund
USA Cares has established the Fort Hood Family Emergency Fund in response to the tragic events that occurred last Thursday afternoon on the base of the Army’s largest installation. The fund, which serves to assist the immediate families of those wounded and killed, will provide for travel, housing and meals.
Bill Nelson, USA Cares Executive Director remarked, “Our goal is to ensure that victim’s family members do not have to worry about the financial hardships of travel at this time—we encourage them to visit our website for information on eligibility and benefits. Further, we ask Americans everywhere to go to www.usacares.org and donate in light of this tragedy.”
Family Resource Coordinator Forest Bruner, a 20-year Army veteran is directly fielding these requests. Visit www.usacares.org for more information or to donate to USA Care’s Fort Hood Family Emergency Fund.
