Texas VFW Unmet Needs Program
http://www.vfw.org/assistance/financial-grants
Unmet Needs is there to help America's military families who have run into unexpected financial difficulties as a result of deployment or other military-related activity or injury. The program provides financial aid grants of up to $1,500 to assist with basic life needs in the form of a grant - not a loan - so no repayment is required. To further ease the burden, we pay the creditor directly. Access the link below to setup an account and begin the application:

US Dental Service
https://www.usdentalservice.com/
The usdentalservice.com is a dental directory focusing on providing information about clinics that provide free, low-cost dental care in the United States. Before using dental care, you will need to contact the dental clinics for appointments or more detailed information you might be concerned about. Our goal here is to provide useful information on free, low-cost dental resources and how to find them near you. We do not work directly with any clinic in any way, and we cannot help set up appointments for you, either. We provide a listing of dental clinics that provide free or low-cost dental services in order to help those who may put off dental treatment due to certain financial issues, such as lack of dental insurance plans, having high co-pay, etc. You should be aware that only a few free or low-cost programs are open to anyone. Some of them may depend on your eligibility for government assistance, income, location, or even age group. With some other restrictions and rules, most programs may have a varying payment scale that is based on your ability to pay. Here at usdentalservice.com, we will help you to find such dental services by providing detailed information about each clinic. We will constantly add new clinics and update our website with new information as we receive it.
