Don't miss out on a chance to help your community stand up for military and veteran families!
The Military Family Research Institute at Purdue University aims to assist communities in efforts to support military and veteran families. We are therefore pleased to offer competitive small monetary grants of up to $2,500 to community organizations and family support groups that strive to improve their quality of life. Applications are due April 15.
MFRI staff is on hand to help explain the application process and offer advice for successful proposals. Contact your local community outreach representative for details, support and more information.
In 2015, we awarded 25 grants ranging from $500-$2,500. These funds served more than 2,500 military-affiliated families in Indiana. Some of the proposals funded:
- programming about financial literacy;
- leadership training;
- employment readiness; and
- homeless and at-risk families.
Let us help you support the military and veteran families in your community. Contact your outreach representative for more information today!
