FAQ's

We are always looking to develop strategic relationships with companies and organizations that work to enhance the impact of VFW programs and services directed toward service members, veterans and their families. By aligning with our post, you will be associated with our nationally recognizable brand and our more than 1.5 million VFW and Auxiliary members, plus their family members. More importantly you will be supporting programs and outreach here in your local community. If your organization or company is interested in working with us, please contact our Senior Vice Commander. 

You must be a veteran who has honorably served overseas in an area of foreign conflict in order to join the VFW.
