The fund shall be a continuing fund, not subject to fiscal year

to the provisions of subsection A of this section and any donations

received from any individuals or organizations. All monies accruing

to the credit of the fund are appropriated and may be budgeted and

burying an indigent veteran; provided, the maximum reimbursement

shall not exceed Five Hundred Dollars ($500.00) per veteran and

total reimbursements made in calendar year 2017 shall be limited to

deducted shall be paid to the State Treasurer and placed to the
