National VFW’s 119th birthday celebration on September

The Veterans of Foreign Wars was established on
September 29, 1899 by a group of veterans from the
Spanish American War and the Philippine insurrection.
It has since grown to be the nation’s largest group of
combat veterans. They continue “to honor the dead
by helping the living”. The VFW promote patriotism,
goodwill and youth scholarships. They also provide
military assistance and community service program,
promote youth activities and volunteer many hours
in their local communities. National VFW Day is observed
annually on September 29 honoring all men
and women devoted to this valuable organization and
those members who have served our nation.
Members of the VFW today hold a long-standing
history of volunteerism in their communities. Not only
have they served their country, but they
continue to serve their fellow veterans,
families and communities by sponsoring
scholarships, and many other excellent
services. VFW membership since its
inception has been instrumental in the
establishment of the Veterans Administration,
the creation of the national cemetery
system and passage of the GI Bill.
Through the VFW, veterans honor veterans
and serve their communities.
On September 29 National VFW Day
please take a moment to recognize all
the VFW does in your community. We
appreciate all the sacrifices that the Veterans
have made for us all. We are The Land of the
Free because of the Brave. Please join us in the celebration
by a covered dish dinner at 5:30 pm and Karaoke
at 7:00pm. Everyone invited to join in the party.
We are located at 5204 HWY 3 Dickinson, TX. If you
