Volunteerism in their communities has a long tradition. Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) members today have a long tradition of volunteeringism in their communities. Not only have they served their country, but they continue to help their fellow veterans, spouses, and families by offering scholarships, career fairs, mental health services, and countless other essential programs.

Since its inception, VFW membership has been instrumental in the establishment of the Veterans Administration, the establishment of the national cemetery system, and the passage of the GI Bill... Veterans are recognized and serve their families in their communities through the VFW. Take a moment to appreciate all the VFW does in your neighborhood on National VFW Day..
