HelpAmerica Foundation Stand Down Grants

The HelpAmerica Foundation is a nonprofit organization that has a goal to improve the quality of life for those who have uncommonly great needs due to circumstances beyond their control. This will be accomplished one heart, one home and one family at a time.

The HelpAmerica Foundation has funds available to provide grants from $1,000 to $3,000 to organizations that are conducting Stand Down programs in 2008. Event coordinators should go to www.helpamericafoundation.org and fill out a Grant Application today. Eligible Stand Down programs must be organized by a community-based service organization with a 501© 3 IRS designation, and must be listed on the National Stand Down Registry maintained by the National Coalition for Homeless Veterans (www.nchv.org). Events organized by government agencies are not eligible for this program.

Approved grants for one-day programs will be $1,000. Two-day programs will be eligible for $2,000. Stand Downs of three days or longer will be eligible for $3,000. Each application will be reviewed and approved through the HelpAmerica Foundation Board of Directors on a quarterly basis. You will be contacted when the application is received, and will receive the HelpAmerica Foundation's decision immediately after the board considers your application. Please follow all grant and application guidelines as shown on the website.  Contact information can also be found at www.helpamericafoundation.org.
