Review for VFW National Home , Eaton Rapids, MI, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I joined the Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) Veterans Organization in 1965 at post 3822 in Panama Canal Zone. There was a collection taken of your loose change at each Membership Meeting and at the end of each month the Quartermaster would bundle the months money and send it to our VFW National Home. I was the Virginia VFW National Home for Children Chairman for 6 years and made 4 trips to the home located on a section of land outside Eaton Rapids, Michigan. The children of our National Home need us to support them financially and physically as some of them do not have biologic mothers and fathers still living so we are their mothers and fathers. The staff of our national Home for Children do a fantastic job of taking of the children through their expertise and loving care. WJ Leonard post 7327 Virginia

What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...

Contributing financially on a regular monthly basis and visiting the National Home for the annual life member meeting and getting to see and associate with the staff.

The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...

very professional and totally friendly

If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...

do more construction and have room for more children who are on a waiting list

How frequently have you been involved with the organization?
