Incorporated in 1942, the Air Force Aid Society (AFAS) embodies the great 5-Star General Henry “Hap” Arnold’s vision of an organization that supports airmen, guardians, and their families.

When unexpected emergencies arise, there is a financial need and help is needed, AFAS provides no-interest loans and/or grants to help meet immediate needs and make a positive step towards a lasting financial solution.

AFAS education grants, loans and scholarships are available to dependent children or spouses of Airmen and Guardians, both active duty and retired.

AFAS understands the challenges that come with active duty military life, from deployments to PCSs, and offers targeted community programs to help with such things as child care, car upkeep and spouse employment education.
