VFW Member Dispatch

This month, we want to take this opportunity to thank YOU, each of our members, for all you do. You are the reason the VFW is one of the most respected veterans service organizations in the world.

When veterans, service members and military families need a hand up, you’re there for them. When budget cuts threaten military preparedness and quality of life programs, you make your voice heard. And when our local communities are in need of assistance, you step up.

Thanks to you, we are off to another strong start this year in terms of support. As you’ll read in this month’s issue, we’re on track to help a record-breaking number of veterans through our Unmet Needs program, were the presenting sponsor of the historic WWI commemoration event in Kansas City, and because of your care and concern for the mental wellness of America’s veterans, we’re strengthening our relationship with PatientsLikeMe.

Your daily efforts work to make a positive impact on the lives of countless veterans, service members and their families. You are the reason we can proudly proclaim No One Does More For Veterans, and we sincerely thank you for your membership in the VFW.


Respectfully,
Your VFW Membership Team
