Air Force charity ends gas money grants on first day after huge demand
A charity that assists Air Force and Space Force personnel has ended a program to help with gas costs due to high demand. The Air & Space Forces Aid Society offered a one-time grant of $150 to eligible enlisted troops. The program was announced last week and applications were accepted online starting Monday.
However, the charity stopped accepting applications later that day due to a strong response that exceeded the program's funding cap. Further details about the program and its termination are available from the Air & Space Forces Aid Society. The charity had intended for the grant to help offset the rising cost of gas for eligible service members.
