Garden County Veterans Aid Fund, through the Keith County officer

The officer. Garden County's Veterans Services page names Daniel Nichols, Veterans Service Officer, (308) 284-7776, [email protected] - Keith County's officer (see the Keith County office entry, which also serves Garden County). The State's directory, updated October 26, 2026, puts his Garden County hours at the Garden County Annex, 619 Main Street, Oshkosh, on the first and third Tuesday of the month from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.; the county's page gives "511 N Spruce Street, Oshkosh", the street address of the Keith County courthouse in Ogallala. What the fund holds and pays. Garden County's filed 2025-2026 budget's Veterans Aid Fund (1900) held $4,575.08 on July 1, 2023, paid $400.00 of veteran's aid in 2023-2024, held $4,422.79 on July 1, 2024, earned $213.63 of interest and paid nothing in 2024-2025, and held $4,636.42 on July 1, 2025; it levies no tax. The 2025-2026 budget offers $4,686.42 of veteran's aid, the whole fund. Who qualifies. Section 80-102 lets the county veterans service committee aid a veteran, a spouse, a surviving spouse or a minor child in need; since LB1300 (Laws 2024, section 45) the veteran need only have served, been discharged honorable or general (under honorable conditions) or died in service, and lived a year in Nebraska and six months in the county. Garden County posts no aid text of its own. Ask the officer on an Oshkosh Tuesday or at the Ogallala office; see the Nebraska entry on the county fund for the committee's discretion and the State's own aid fund. The County Clerk records a DD-214 brought in (see the Nebraska entry on the Discharge Record).
