Operation HOPE

Financial Assistance · Minnesota · Free

Financial coaching, credit counseling, and small business assistance. Useful for older adults whose income dropped at retirement or after a spouse's death, and who don't know what they qualify for. Many programs require proof of income (tax return, Social Security statement) and proof of residency (utility bill, lease). VA Aid & Attendance can add up to ,800/month to a wartime veteran's pension or surviving spouse's pension — most never apply. No cost to older adults or the people helping them.
