Apply of Veterans Relief Grant
Founded by family members to support temporary assistance to veterans in Frederick County.
This fund was established in memory of Sgt. David James Smith 11 years after his death in Afghanistan and 10 years after establishing the Sgt. David J. Smith Memorial Golf Tournament. In the spirit of who David was, the fund supports emergency relief assistance for Frederick County veterans. Frederick is the city David loved, along with his service to the Marine Corps. It is fitting to give back to the men and women of this county who willingly gave of themselves for us.
