For more than a century, the VFW's been busy building the strong, multifaceted organization we are today - a powerhouse FOR VETERANS. Here are the tools you need to help tell our story and ensure we continue making a difference for veterans of every era.

VFW Post Pride

From coordinating welcome home celebrations and community picnics, to building playgrounds and organizing clothing drives, No One Does More For Veterans than the VFW.

VFW Magazine

With a circulation of 1.3 million, the official VFW magazine has been the voice of the overseas war veteran for more than a century. In November 1904, the first issue of the magazine's predecessor publication appeared for members of a fledgling organization called the American Veterans of Foreign Service.

Checkpoint

Highlighting the amazing work the VFW does at all levels, Checkpoint is an award-winning newsletter published six times a year. It provides VFW Department, District and Post leaders with a more comprehensive and unique understanding of the organization.

Convention

Each year, thousands of VFW and VFW Auxiliary members convene from all over the world for our five-day national convention. VFW members vote on organizational by-laws, attend revitalizing and informative workshops, network with other veterans and attend business sessions.
