Veterans Support Drive

What This Ministry Focuses On:

• We are partnering with our local VFW to provide financial assistance for their ongoing veteran outreach programs.
• Your financial gifts help fund local community initiatives, support veterans facing hardships, and ensure our community continues to honor local heroes.

Collection Timeline:

• This special financial collection will be emphasized through Veterans Day weekend (November 8–15, 2026), but you can contribute at any point leading up to it.

Check & Envelope Memo Line:

• Because this is a designated drive, your check must strictly say ” VFW” in the memo line (or clearly written on the front of a physical cash envelope). This tells the board exactly how to route the funds so they can be written as a single gift to the local post.
