To receive financial assistance from 214LIFE, you must be a veteran, have a necessity, and 214Life must be able to pay the creditor directly.

All donations made to 214LIFE will be used entirely to continue our mission of supporting veterans in need.  As veterans ourselves, our staff is proud to volunteer and utilize donations solely to intervene on the behalf of struggling veterans. (our overhead is limited to around $100 a month, which is used to maintain the webpage and submittal forms)

Absolutely not. With the help of the internet and the ability to pay almost everything electronically, 214LIFE is able to assist veterans nationwide. If 214LIFE has a chapter in your area or not, if we have the ability to help, we will. The Chapters are set up for local veterans to be able to coordinate peer related functions and to form a local network of resources where veterans can help each other.

If you would like to help establish a chapter in your area and promote camaraderie, peer to peer help, and networking for veterans in your community, reach out here, and together we will establish a new chapter.
