Who qualifies. Gosper County posts no aid text. 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. Apply through the Veterans Service Office, 308-785-8028 (see that entry); see the Nebraska entry on the county fund for the committee's discretion and the State's own aid fund.
