WIESBADEN, Germany – \u201cWe had an amazing, successful run \u2013 and that\u2019s all due to you,\u201d said Briana Johnson, Army Community Service\u2019s Army Emergency Relief Officer.<\/p>\n

Johnson thanked members of the coordination team, garrison command group and unit AER representatives during the U.S. Army Garrison Wiesbaden AER Campaign Closing Ceremony at the Community Activity Center on June 6.<\/p>\n

\u201cPeople use AER all the time for all kinds of issues,\u201d said Johnson, pointing to the critical role that AER\u2019s financial support program plays in assisting active-duty and retired service members and their families.<\/p>\n

Besides providing no-interest loans and grants to those in financial need for everything from natural disasters to temporary lodging, home repairs to the essentials such as food and rent, AER also provides scholarships for family members.<\/p>\n

Thanks to everyone\u2019s efforts and AER contributions, the U.S. Army Garrison Wiesbaden surpassed the Army goal for participation of 25 percent and earned the top small installation for the 2023 AER Campaign, according to Johnson.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have exceeded our goal that was initially set at $25,000 with the current total at $34,356,\u201d Johnson said.<\/p>\n

During the ceremony and luncheon honoring the men and women who helped spread the word about the annual campaign and AER services, Johnson singled out Staff Sgt. Monique Garcia of Headquarters and Headquarters Detachment, 24th Military Intelligence Battalion.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have one unit rep who has gone above and beyond,\u201d said Johnson, while presenting a plaque and certificate for her efforts. Garcia was recognized for having raised $7,009.87 during the campaign.<\/p>\n

The non-profit financial assistance program was established in 1942. An annual AER Campaign in the spring raises money to support the program \u2013 although donors are welcome to contribute all year long.<\/p>\n
