Army Emergency Relief

[USMCRET6391]

Army Emergency Relief obtains a large share of the funds necessary to support our missions through donations from both the general public and those from the Army Family.

Historically, only 5% of donations have been used for fund raising and other administrative expenses. The U.S. Army provides much of our administration requirements, thereby insuring that 95 cents of every dollar you donate goes directly into one of our programs for soldiers and their families.

Founded by the Secretary of War in 1942, Army Emergency Relief is exempt from federal income tax under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Service Code. Contributions to AER are fully deductible under section 170(b)(1)(a) of the Code. Our FEIN is 53-0196552. Click here for a copy of our latest IRS determination letter. Although sponsored by the Department of the Army, AER receives no direct funding from the government and is not part of any government-funded compensation or assistance program.

All donations to AER are used to support soldiers and their families. Checks should be made payable to Army Emergency Relief or simply the letters AER. Contributions should be mailed to:

Army Emergency Relief
Attn: Donations
200 Stovall Street, Room 5-N-13
Alexandria, VA 22332-0600
