Programs
Just a few of the national programs of our Auxiliary:
The Legislative program started in 1928, at which time it was called Legislation. The Ladies Auxiliary of the VFW has progressed greatly with letter-writing, personal contacts, e-mails, and invitations to legislators to attend our functions so that we can share our views.
1928--Volunteer Hospital work became the second National Program adopted by the Ladies Auxiliary VFW. As America's troops return from battle and aging warriors need medical attention, the Ladies Auxiliary has been there to assist with a cheerful smile, an encouraging word, and time to write or read a letter from loved ones. The organization volunteers 1.8 million hours a year.
1931--The “Star Spangled Banner Bill” made it to the floor of Congress. Americanism became the third National continuing service program adopted by the Ladies Auxiliary VFW. Seventy-four years later the program continues stronger than ever.
