Requests for Aid
We consider the 7th Cavalry to be a Brotherhood. As brothers we want to help each other as much as we can. Sometimes this comes in the form of general advice, tech support, gaming strategies, or simply an attentive ear to listen to life's problems. Other times members find themselves in need of financial assistance to get them over a hurdle that life has put in front of them.
While we are not a charitable organization, we can when needed pass the hat around for a Brother or Sister to help them out. This is not something to be taken for granted.This should be used for situations due to emergent, unexpected life events; events that could not predict in most cases, that given the lack of a social safety net, could cause homelessness or deprive them the means to earn a living. For example:
- The unexpected death of a family member
- An unexpected lapse in employment that causes you to miss a utility bill
- A car accident, helping to get your car back on the road so you can go to work
Not all requests can be fulfilled. Below are the guidelines and requirements for requesting aid from the Regiment.This process takes time, if your request is urgent and you need funds immediately, this process is not for you.
