Message From the President
In the first Army Emergency Relief Annual Report published on May 4, 1943, the AER founders recognized the
need for an agency within the structure of the Army that provides financial assistance for US Army personnel
and their families. This began the formation of an organization that has been an integral part of Army life for
the past 70 years. Since WWII, Army Emergency Relief has provided $1.4 Billion in assistance and since 9/11
alone AER has provided over $620 Million.
Army Emergency Relief is a Commanders Program that is managed by Garrison Commanders at US Army
installations to meet the financial needs of our Soldiers and Family members. With the many new categories
of assistance established over the past several years and the broad latitude which AER Officers worldwide
have in approving requests, we have today a user friendly system that can promptly respond to Soldier
requests.
Soldiers and Family members also have easy access to AER funds whether at home station, while deployed or
on travel, or simply by going to any Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps or Coast Guard installation, any
American Red Cross Chapter or by using the 24 hour Red Cross Hotline.
I offer my sincere thanks to the Commanders and leaders at all levels who promote, educate and inform
Soldiers and their Families about the benefits of AER. In addition, we are grateful for the dedicated efforts of
our AER Officers who are on the front lines every day insuring that our Soldiers and their Families remain
ARMY STRONG.

General, U.S. Army Retired
President, Army Emergency Relief

View From the Director
Army Emergency Relief had another outstanding year in 2011 distributing $77.8 million to 64,074 Soldiers and
their Families. We also received a total of $11.9 million in donations which included contributions during the
annual campaign from active duty and retired Soldiers as well as unsolicited contributions from individuals,
foundations and corporations.
As a result of feedback from AER Officers and leaders at all levels we launched several new initiatives. The
AER Board of Managers approved four new categories of financial assistance for Purchase of Furniture, Rental
Vehicles, Replacement Vehicles and Dependent Dental Care. The dollar amount for the Command Referral
Program which gives Company Commanders and First Sergeants the authority to approve Soldier interest free
loans was raised from $1,000 to $1,500. We were also pleased to see that the Army wide average of loans
attributed to the Command Referral Program increased from 30% in 2010 to 35% in 2011. In addition, the
grants to Wounded Warriors medically evacuated from a theater of combat who are on inpatient status in
Army hospitals was raised from $200 to $500. Our college scholarship program continues to be very
successful with $8 million in scholarships awarded to 4,351 spouses and children of active duty and retired
Soldiers.
Last year was also a landmark year for creating a greater awareness of AER policies and programs. We now
have a modern website with a more intuitive navigation process. We established a Facebook account and a
YouTube channel to insure we can better communicate with a broader segment of the Army Family. We are
also included in the Army Blue Book smartphone application. All of these new initiatives are designed for the
purpose of reaching out to better meet the needs of our Soldiers and their Families and to insure that we
continue to focus on maintaining the Army Emergency Relief tradition of “Soldiers helping Soldiers.”

Secretary of the Army
Since 1942, Army Emergency Relief has been “Helping the Army Take Care of its Own.” Thanks to the
generous support of our Soldiers, and the repayment of no interest loans, AER has been able to help
Soldiers and Families in financial need – with emergency grants and loans, children and spouse
scholarships, and grants to widows and wounded warriors.
Last year, AER answered the call for assistance from more than 64,000 Soldiers and their Families, and
provided more than $77 million in emergency grants, loans and scholarships. That support not only ensures
financial relief for those in need, it helps Soldiers focus on their mission, enhancing the readiness of our
entire United States Army.
AER continues 70 years of helping those in need with this year’s campaign, “Helping to Make Soldiers and
their Families Army Strong.” And through our continued support of Army Emergency Relief, the help and
assistance provided to so many Soldiers and Army families over the years will continue for many more to
come.
John M. McHugh
Secretary of the Army

answered the call for
assistance from more

Chief of Staff
Over the past 237 years, the U.S. Army has consistently proven itself to be the strength of our Nation. At
the center of our great Army is the American Soldier who has repeatedly shown courage, bravery and
unsurpassed dedication in service to our Nation. Caring for our Soldiers and their Families is every leader’s
inherent responsibility. Army Emergency Relief is a vital program that provides leaders resources to ensure
that our Soldiers are cared for and more importantly, those resources are generated by the Soldiers
themselves; it is the outward manifestation of Soldiers helping Soldiers.
AER is an organization that has always provided timely financial assistance and has been a preeminent
example of the kind of trust, synergy and strong values that reflect the very essence of Army life. For over
70 years, AER has been a constant in a time of uncertainty and an oasis of hope in a time of need. It is
essential that Army leaders at all levels continue to create a greater awareness of AER benefits in order that
members of the Army Family know where to go when faced with financial needs.
The success of AER has been inspiring and I am confident it will continue to be a vital and vibrant program
with the help of our Soldiers and the installation AER Officers who are on the frontlines everyday ensuring
the requisite care, consideration and support for our Soldiers and their Families. Army Strong!
Raymond T. Odierno
General, United States Army
Chief of Staff
“For over 70 years,
AER has been a

Sergeant Major of the Army
As Sergeant Major of the Army I am honored to sit on the Army Emergency Relief Board of Managers.
Being a member gives me the opportunity to see the impact AER has on our Army every day. Since 1942, it
has been imbedded in our culture, and rightly so, for who better to help a Soldier in need than a fellow
Soldier?
AER has a proud history in responding to the needs of generations of Soldiers and Family Members. I have
personally observed how the unprecedented expansion in categories of assistance and new programs are
going a long way in meeting the needs of today’s Soldiers. In addition, the AER Officers worldwide manifest
great credibility through their motto of “Finding a way to say Yes.” This has been instrumental in allowing
AER to double the funds made available to Soldiers and their Families over the past 5 years.
I encourage leaders at all levels of the Army to continue their efforts in creating a greater awareness of
AER. We should constantly promote the programs and categories of assistance as well as emphasize the
benefits to be gained through the availability of interest free loans and grants from such a caring
organization. Lastly, I want to personally thank everyone involved in the AER process and extend my
personal appreciation for their hard work in helping Soldiers and Families solve their financial problems.

Since its beginning in 1942, AER has provided $1.4 billion to 3.4 million
Soldiers and their Families. In 2011 we provided $69.4 million in no-interest
loans and grants for nearly 59,800 Soldiers and their Families. This includes
$1.5 million of assistance to 1,056 Army Reserve Soldiers, $1 million in
assistance to 872 Army National Guard Soldiers and $8.8 million in assistance
to 5,834 Retirees and their Families. AER also provided 2,103 surviving
Spouses and Orphans with more than $2.4 million. With scholarships, total
assistance came to more than $77 million.
11

Helping Our Wounded Warriors
In 2003, AER identified a critical need for our Wounded Warriors. When our Soldiers
were medically evacuated from theater, many were transported with just the clothes
on their back, without cash or credit cards.
AER stepped in and developed a system which provided our Wounded Warriors
immediate assistance. Today, every Wounded Warrior medically evacuated from a
theater of combat for inpatient care is provided a $500 health and comfort grant. This
grant has no restrictions, but is intended for the purchase of toiletries, magazines,
warm-up suits, or anything else that could make a Soldier’s recovery more comfortable
while minimizing the concern for immediate cash needs.
In 2011, AER provided Wounded Warrior grants to nearly 900 Soldiers totaling more
than $310,000.
12

Caring for Families of the Fallen
In 2003, AER saw the need to provide lifetime benefits counseling for surviving Family
Members of Soldiers who died on active duty.
We found that the best way to provide this service was to partner with The Armed Forces
Service Corporation and the Army, Air Force Mutual Aid Association. Both companies
have extensive experience with the Department of Veterans Affairs, the Social Security
Administration and the Department of Defense .
In 2011, AER provided 211 surviving spouses with memberships for lifetime benefits
counseling at a cost of $220,900. Since the program’s inception AER has provided 2,788
lifetime counseling memberships at a total cost of $2.3 million.
The Department of Defense assumed responsibility for this program in November 2011.
13

New Categories of Assistance
Based on feedback from the field over the past two years,
AER added nine new categories of assistance in an effort to
be more responsive to the changing needs of today’s
Soldiers.
In November 2010, the AER Board of Managers approved
the addition of assistance for relocation travel expenses,
repair of HVAC equipment, the purchase or repair of stoves
and refrigerators, child car seats and cranial helmets.
Nearly $1.3 million of assistance in these new categories
was distributed in 2011.
New categories approved by the Board in November 2011
include Family Member dental care, basic furniture needs,
rental vehicles and replacement vehicles.
These new categories enable AER to take a more proactive
role in caring for Soldiers and their Families during their
time of need.

Personal Financial Management Course
In 2003, AER introduced a pilot program for personal financial management
training for Soldiers attending Advanced Individual Training (AIT) at Ft. Bliss,
Texas . By 2008, the program had been implemented at all AIT sites across the
Army.
AER made this investment in the future, believing that it is important that
young Soldiers have a solid foundation in money management to include car
buying, credit, consumer scams, life insurance and the Thrift Savings Plan.
In 2011, AER invested $1.2 million to provide this valuable training to more
than 111,000 Soldiers. Since its inception AER has underwritten the personal
financial management training of over 400,000 Soldiers.

Scholarships
In 2011, Army Emergency Relief awarded 3,181 scholarships, totaling $6.2 million to dependent children.
The MG James Ursano Scholarship Program provides up to four years of college scholarships for children of
Soldiers on active duty or retired. Since 1997, AER has helped children of Soldiers attend college by
awarding 35,434 scholarships worth $62.9 million.
Scholarships are normally awarded based on three criteria; financial need, grade point average and
leadership. In 2011, the average Ursano Scholarship award was $1,880. The children of Soldiers who die
while on active duty are automatically granted the maximum award which was $3,000 in 2011.
AER also awarded scholarships totaling $79,833 under the Pentagon Victims’ Scholarship Fund which was
established to provide undergraduate education assistance for children of Soldiers killed or severely
wounded in the terrorist attack on the Pentagon on September 11, 2001.

Scholarships
In 2011, Army Emergency Relief awarded scholarships totaling $2 million to 985
Spouses under our two Spouse educational assistance programs. Stateside
Spouses’ Educational Assistance Scholarships were awarded to 615 Spouses
totaling $1.7 million. The Overseas Spouses’ Educational Assistance Scholarships
totaling $300 thousand were awarded to 370 Spouses. The average award in 2011
was $2,725 under the Stateside program. The Overseas program award amount
is less due to class calendars and the opportunity for multiple awards, up to five
times per year, averaged $887 in 2011.
Based on feedback from Spouses, AER is consolidating both the Overseas and
Stateside Spouse Scholarship programs into a single, more efficient Spouse
Scholarship Program in 2012. The consolidation of the two spouse scholarship
programs will simplify the application process, as well as allow all spouses to
qualify for part-time scholarships.

Upgrading Information Technology
Throughout 2011, AER took steps to improve the headquarters infrastructure in
order to better serve our Soldiers, active and retired, and their Families. We moved
into a new modern office space, which allows the functional teams to work in a
more collaborative environment, greatly enhancing efficiency, effectiveness and
productivity.
We have updated our website, providing a significantly more intuitive navigation
process. Included in website upgrades was the decision to no longer outsource this
critical information link, resulting in both an overall increase in website security as
well as significant cost savings.
We established both a Facebook page and a YouTube channel as part of an effort to
engage younger Soldiers in a medium that they use every day. This has greatly
improved communication with the total Army Family.
Ongoing IT infrastructure upgrades will introduce the ability for Soldiers to request
assistance and check account balances online while improving overall system
security. The online application process will also assist local AER sections in their
ability to quickly process assistance cases and greatly reduce the amount of paper
they must maintain in their local files.

Measures of Efficiency
The litmus test for non-profit efficiency has traditionally centered around the donor question “How much of my donation actually goes to those
you help?” Due to AER’s unique assistance model the answer is “every penny donated and then some” goes to Soldiers and Families. In 2011
AER received $11.9 million in donations. With those donations, supplemented by loan repayments and investment income, AER distributed
$77.8 million in total assistance. This measurement of return on donations means that for every dollar donated, AER provided $6.54 in direct
assistance.
Loan Payments
$11.9M
$77.8 M

Disbursed to Soldiers
and Families
Investment Income
Another relevant measure of efficiency is the percent of AER expenses that actually go to program expenses. In 2011, $24.5 million of total
expenses covered three functional categories - program, general management and fundraising. Program expenses accounted for $21.7 million or
88.3%, general management and fundraising accounted for 9.5% and 2.2%, respectively. This measurement of return on donations means that
AER provided $1.82 in program expenses for every dollar donated.

Financial Highlights
Source of Funds:
Army Emergency Relief is all about “Soldiers
Helping Soldiers,” so it is not a surprise that the
major source of AER funds is the repayment of
loans. In 2011, AER received $61.5 million in
loan payments. As Soldiers make payments,
other Soldiers receive benefits.
The annual AER campaign is the second leading
source of funds for AER. Although the primary
focus of the campaign is to ensure that every
eligible Soldier, Retiree and Family member is
aware of the benefits of AER, the campaign in
2011 resulted in $9.8 million in donations.
Additionally, AER received $6.5 million from its
investment account, as well as $2 million in
unsolicited donations from private individuals,
corporations, foundations, memorials and
bequests.
Investments 7%
Unsolicited Donations 3%
Annual Campaign 12%
Loan Payments 78%
Sources of Funds to provide assistance include revenues from donations and
investment income plus loan repayments on existing assistance loans.

Financial Highlights
Use of Funds
1% Fundraising
3% Management Expenses
8% Other Program Expenses
9% Scholarships
8% Assistance Grants
71% Assistance Loans
Army Emergency Relief takes pride in the compassionate and effective manner in which the 333 AER
Officers provided assistance to over 64,000 individual cases in 2011. Each request for assistance is
judged on a case-by-case basis by highly qualified professionals who focus on the individual needs of the
Soldier or Family member.
In 2011, $62.8 million dollars representing 71 cents of each disbursed dollar went to providing loans and
$6.9 million, or 8 cents, went to grants. These no interest loans allowed Soldiers and their Families to
save an estimated $25 million in interest fees.
Another 9 cents of every dollar or $8.1 million was provided to children and spouses of Soldiers in the
form of 4,303 scholarships.
8 cents of every dollar, or $6.6 million, represented other program expenses to include the Personal
Financial Management Course provided to 111,000 Soldiers during their Advanced Individual Training.
General management and fundraising expenses represented 3 and 1 cents on the dollar at 2.3 million
and 540 thousand dollars respectively.
Note: Uses of Funds includes operational expenses and disbursements for
financial assistance loans.

Words of Thanks
“…I am compelled to express my gratitude for your giving
me the opportunity you did by approving this
grant. Although I obviously realize this money is not
coming out of your pocket directly … without your
compassion and approval stamp, this could not have
happened for me … I don't mean to sound too over-the-top
with my thanking you, I just need you to know that this
changed the life of one young vet and you had a big part in
it. This has not only taken a thousand pounds of weight off
of my shoulders, but it has done the same for my fiancé and
my family … Thanks again for the work that you do everyday
and thank you for serving our country … Our Army is unique
and is the best in the world, and opportunities like this just
prove that statement.”
- Army Wounded Warrior
“I would like to express my great gratitude to the Army
Emergency Relief (AER) … For the past two years AER has
been providing me financial assistance through their
spouse education scholarship which allow me to continue
my education … and you have always been there to assist
when needed.”
- Spouse Scholarship Recipient
This is a testimonial to the wonderful assistance granted
to me personally in March 2011. I am a 71 year old retired
Army Master Sergeant ... Because of circumstances I had
no control of, my financial life was flipped upside down
causing me extreme hardship and the near loss of my
home ... My water well went dry, thousands of dollars in
my meager savings were wiped out in an instant…There
was no fuel for heating or cooking during the worst winter
I can recall, …until the miracle in the form of my yearly
request for a donation to AER arrived in the mail... I had
never read the enclosed folders, and why after all these
years I decided to read this year’s is beyond any
reasoning…But read it I did, and discovered that, as I’d
always believed assistance was for active duty troops only
was not true… Within two days time, my request was
granted and a burden unlike any I’d ever experienced was
lifted from my shoulders…I assure you there are no words
that can ever express my sincere heartfelt gratitude to
AER…My best wishes for continued success in assisting ALL
of us, in and out of uniform…

In 1954 my wife died and left me with 6 children ages
from 10 - 6 months…
…You really helped me then and I hope this little bit
will help some one today.
Thank you for asking.
