-Security Health Plan is supporting veterans with $1,000 of funding to the VFW Unmet Needs Program.The VFW Unmet Needs Program provides grants to active duty service members and recent veterans experiencing hardship due to deployment, a military pay issue, or a military-related illness or injury. The program offers emergency grant funding for housing expenses, utilities and primary phone, vehicle expenses, food and incidentals, children’s clothing, diapers, formula, necessary school or childcare expenses, and the patient’s portion for necessary or emergency medical care, including prescriptions and eyeglasses. Caseworkers evaluate applications for funding and process applications in 5-20 business days, based on need. The VFW sends grant funds directly to a veteran’s creditor.
Every month Security Health Plan donates $1,000 as part of its Employee-Driven Corporate Giving campaign. Marshfield Clinic Health System employees are encouraged to nominate an organization that is making a positive difference in the community.
