Philanthropy
Our goal is to promote social welfare by focusing on our members and “giving back” to our community in the form of volunteering and providing donations through Community Assistance Grants, Outreach and Merit Awards Scholarships.
The Redstone Arsenal Military and Civilians’ Club sponsors Community Assistance Grants for non-profit organizations that request money for events that directly support active duty military, veterans, DoD civilians, their families, and their community. Applicants must reside within a 50 mile radius of Redstone Arsenal. Organizations are encouraged to check eligibility requirements. If eligible, fill out a Community Assistance Grant Application which will open by January 31st on the Community Assistance page. For further information, email the Community Assistance Grant chair.
The Club also awards Merit Award scholarships to military spouses continuing their education, graduating high school seniors and currently attending college students who qualify. We also partner with HCMOAA to provide Military Community Scholarships and with the Yates Family to provide the Yates Family Scholarship. Applications opened on the Merit Awards page in December and awards will be made in May of 2025. For further information email the Merit Award chair at rsamccmeritawards@gmail.com.
Applicants for Merit Awards awards must reside within a 50 mile radius of Redstone Arsenal.
Redstone Arsenal Military & Civilians’ Club is a private nonprofit 501(c)4 organization not affiliated with RSA or the US Army.

RSAMCC Merit Awards
While there are many fundraising efforts that benefit our annual Merit Awards, we are so grateful for the continued support of the Huntsville Chapter of the Military Officers Association of America. They have been supporting military families and efforts in the Tennessee Valley since 1961. The Chapter has earned a Five Star Level of Excellence Award for the last six years in a row and are committed to serving all officers and their families in the Redstone community–retired, currently serving and veterans.
Every fall they host a golf tournament to raise funds for the combined scholarship fund awards in the spring. Our members volunteer beside MOAA chapter members for a silent auction, registration, golf hole monitoring, and more to ensure a successful event.
The RSAMCC also holds our own fundraiser tournament in the spring which is called the Pineapple Open. We also hold several other fundraisers during the year. These will fund the merit awards and community grants award. Lots of fun is had by all for a good cause. Thank you for being an outstanding Redstone Arsenal community partner, HCMOAA!
