Several hundred veterans are supported by this charity.The VRQ facility was also destroyed by Hurricane Helene. These grants include $63,590 in grants toward rebuilding in addition to $1,550 in support of VRQ's routine operations.Of the total grants of $65,140; $32,740 has already been disbursed, and $32,400 is counted as a liability (accounts payable) since it will be expended later this year.
