Project Veteran Aid is a local organization dedicated to helping Veterans and Widows of Veterans with their Long Term Expenses by educating them on VA's, "Aid and Attendance Benefit". This benefit has been available since 1951. However, many veterans are unaware of its existence.
Our mission is to find as many of those Veterans and Widows as possible and to work diligently on their behalf. We achieve this goal by having free informational Workshops at Assisted Living Communities in the Greater St. Louis and St. Charles areas and through an extensive referral network.
There is absolutely no fee associated with our educational assistance to the Veteran, the Widow of a Veteran, their families, or any Assisted Living Community.
We have attempted to answer the more commonly asked questions through the links of this site but to address your specific situation it is best to give us a call at 636-724-0404.
Thank you for visiting us at Project Veteran Aid.com, where the Veteran is never forgotten!
