The AER Annual Campaign

For more than 80 years, AER has been the conduit through which Soldiers provide financial support to their fellow Soldiers. The Annual Campaign’s purpose is to fully inform 100 percent of all active-duty and retired Soldiers and their Family members (including spouses and children of deceased Soldiers) about the types of financial assistance available from AER and provide the opportunity for Soldiers to donate.

The 2024 Campaign ended June 14.
The 2025 Campaign is set for March 1-June 14.

AER headquarters awards installations with the best overall participation each year. Installations are recognized in three categories based on active-duty Soldier population for their participation numbers and money raised. Winners will be recognized by Sgt. Maj. of the Army Michael R. Weimer during the Association of the U.S. Army’s 2024 Annual Meeting in Washington, D.C.

The 2024 Annual Campaign winners were:

  • Fort Sill, Oklahoma: large installation category (10,000 or more active-duty Soldiers); 31.4% participation
  • Fort Leonard Wood, Missouri: medium (2,000-10,000); 98.3% participation
  • Redstone Arsenal, Alabama: small (1,000-2,000); 52.8% participation
