Conway SC Assisted Living Provider Holds Seminars for Veterans

Conway SC Agape Senior Holds VA Seminars for over 700 Local Veterans



How many people attend your church on Sunday? How many friends do you have on Facebook? How many people were in your high school graduating class?

These questions put into perspective the number of military veterans and their families that Aaron Cantley, a Virginia Military Institute graduate, and retired United States Marine Corp, touched in a single week. Aaron spent one week in Horry County recently and spoke to over 700 veterans and their family members. Aaron's message to those veterans is helping them understand the Aid and Attendance Benefits available to qualifying veterans.

In order to qualify, a veteran must be 65 years of age or disabled, must have served 90 days of active duty—one of which must have been during war time—and must not have been dishonorably discharged. Veterans who meet these criteria and who need assistance may qualify for up to $23,963 in benefits per year.

Aaron has partnered with Agape Senior to help veterans obtain these benefits. Approximately 90% of the attendees did not know these benefits existed. The Veterans' Administration has $22 billion per year in undistributed funds for veterans who qualify but don't claim the benefits.

If you know of a veteran or spouse of a veteran who is in need of assistance, contact a Senior Solutions Advisor at Agape Senior today. Agape Senior provides luxurious assisted living facilities throughout South Carolina. Contact Agape Senior at 1-800-411-AGAPE or http://www.askagape.com/.
