Community Involvement

Being a part of the local community is important to the success of a service organization.

The VFW Post 3978 Ladies Auxiliary applies the programs adopted in the National organization to our local community.

Here are a few examples from the past year:

- Conducted a Missing Man Memorial on Patriots Day with Missing Man Table
- Recognized local citizens with a certificate for Citizenship Day (displaying the U.S. flag on a daily basis).
- Honored our Gold Star Mothers by placing an ad in the newspaper September 26.
- Held Spaghetti Dinner to raise funds for Veterans Memorial Park (01/10/09) and raised about a $1000.
- Assisted VFW Post 3978 with the Car Show fundraiser.
- Entered a float in the Oxford Christmas parade.
- Donated $300 for Christmas gifts to the State Veterans Home.
- Creating a cookbook as a fundraiser project.

Our Auxiliary has worked with the Holly Springs Auxiliary on several Holiday projects for the State Veterans Home.
