Post #6: Did you know the VFW Auxiliary has been around for more than 100 years? Ever wonder what we do for veterans and active-duty military? Here’s a snapshot: We serve the veterans of this country and our communities in honor of the sacrifices and commitment of every man and woman who has served in uniform. During the 2017-2018 Program Year, Auxiliaries provided a total of $5.1 million in aid to veterans, active-duty military and their families. We are a voice for veterans on Capitol Hill; we are instrumental in assisting the VFW pass or block legislation that impacts veterans and their families. We are one of the top ten providers of volunteer hours in the VA medical system. Every year, members fundraise millions of dollars for charitable projects that benefit veterans and their families. We provide hundreds of thousands of dollars in scholarships for our nation’s youth. We spread patriotism and educate our communities and our nation’s youth about America’s patriotic holidays and the American Flag. We spread the word about PTSD and promote military and veteran suicide awareness. There are nearly 3,900 Auxiliaries nationwide working to improve the lives of our nation’s veterans.
