Yes, all Air Force and Space Force Activity Duty, Reserve, Guard, and Civilian employees (appropriated and non-appropriated) directly assigned are authorized. As a trial period through CY24, Squadron Commanders can authorize spouses and dependents to participate in Unite events at the allocated per-person amount. The dollar figures will continue to be based on unit official manpower totals and will not increase with the inclusion of dependents.

Funds can be used:

  • for Activities:  Unite Appropriated Funds (APF) via MOA are designated to offset Airmen activity participation costs.  The funding average is ~$13.50 per person to offset Airmen event costs.  Funds can also be used for activities (bowling, golf, etc., equipment rentals, program supplies, decorations & entertainment).
  • for Food:  Unite Non-Appropriated Funds (NAF) can be used for the purchase of food and beverages in support of the Unite program to offset Airmen’s food costs. The funding average is $5.00 per person.

Funds cannot be used to purchase or pay for:

  • End of year events
  • December Holiday parties
  • Squadron trainings or meetings
  • Balls or banquets, Dining in/Dining outs

Unit Developed: Squadron leaders are given the discretion and flexibility to create programs that capitalize on opportunities available on base and in the local area.

Volunteer/Free: Charitable work provides a cost-effective team building activity allowing coworkers to see each other in a new light. Likewise, charitable work can make a distinct difference in the local community. To use Unite funds to offset the cost of food used in conjunction with a volunteer/free event, an event request must be submitted.

Virtual: Allows for continued unit cohesion in a physically distant environment. Helps boost morale, eliminate isolation, increase interaction, and strengthen overall team dynamics.
