For more than 11 decades, VFW Posts have been the pillars of support in their communities. From building local playgrounds and organizing clothing drives, to military support events and disaster relief efforts, we take great pride in our long history of service to communities across the globe. Read on for more information about the current grants we have available.
VFW Foundation Post Pandemic Relief Grant
The VFW Foundation is shifting its grant making focus for the 2021 fiscal year to provide urgently needed financial relief to VFW Posts affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. Many VFW Posts are unable to utilize traditional fundraising methods and are in dire need of aid. To better assists our Posts, the VFW Foundation is introducing the VFW Post Pandemic Relief Grant (PPRG). This is an opportunity for VFW Posts that own or lease their buildings to receive up to $2,500 in support toward costs such as Mortgage/rent, utility bills and property taxes. Applications for the VFW Foundation Post Pandemic Relief Grant will be accepted until the allocated funds have been depleted.
Unfortunately, this shift in focus means we have had to temporarily suspend both the VFW Foundation Community Support Grant and VFW Foundation Grant until next year.
The VFW Foundation’s grant programs are currently closed. New grant opportunities may be available starting September 2021. Please email jcouch@vfw.org or call 816.968.1174 with any questions you may have.
