"Through the Veterans' Trust Fund grant program, we are able to partner with community organizations and county advocates to see that the needs of our veterans and their families are met after they return home from serving and sacrificing," said Gov. Wolf. "The generosity of Pennsylvanians who donate to the Fund is admired and appreciated throughout state government."
Grants will be considered in the following areas:
Since the grant program began in 2013, 205 grants totaling $5,191,860 have been awarded to organizations providing services to veterans in Pennsylvania. "I have the pleasure of traveling the commonwealth, meeting many of our veterans and seeing first-had how the Veterans' Trust Fund improves the lives of those who served," said Maj. Gen. Mark Schindler, Pennsylvania's adjutant general and head of the DMVA. "These grants would not be possible without the continued generosity of Pennsylvanians who donate year-after-year. Thank you for caring about our veterans."
