The Utah National Guard Charitable Trust was established as a 501(c)3 entity in 2005.  Contributions to the trust come from private citizens and corporate organizations such as Ralph L. Wadsworth Construction Company, Merit Medical, American Express, Daughters of the American Revolution and Overstock.com. Please see our Web site for more details on upcoming events which support the Utah National Guard Charitable Trust.

 

If you are a Utah military Service member or immediate family member in need of financial assistance, please fill out the application below and submit it to the Trust with appropriate documentation of the financial hardship and a letter stating your request for funds. Some cases may require additional information or documentation. Depending on the type of financial hardship, approved requests may receive a grant or no-interest loan.

 

Examples of financial hardships with which the Trust may assist families include medical, home or  property emergencies. Other situations may also qualify on a case-by-case basis.

 

Applications received by the Utah National Guard Charitable Trust board of directors are reviewed by the board comprised of military officers and noncommissioned officers, military retirees, volunteers and government civilian employees. These members administer the rules and regulations of the Charitable Trust. Requests must receive at least a majority vote for approval of any disbursement of funds.
