Ivan T. of VFW Post 3173 (Anaheim), who also serves as the Post’s chef, helped lead a Back-to-School Backpack & School Supply Drive supporting underserved children and families in schools near the Post.

Thanks to Dollar Tree's generous support, students received much-needed school supplies to help them head into the new school year prepared and confident. 🇺🇸

An incredible effort by the post and community.👏

August month in review!

Another busy month for the VFW Department of California. Take a look back at some of the highlights!👏🇺🇸

September is National Su***de Prevention Month.💜🩵

This month, join State Commander Paula Jansen as she gets moving and makes time for exercise every day. Follow along on our social media and stories throughout the month.

And remember, you can walk anywhere! Commander Jansen is kicking things off at the San Diego airport, proving there’s always an opportunity to get moving, even while traveling. ✈️

Together, we can check in, stay connected and remind one another that no one has to face a difficult time alone. Every veteran’s life matters.💚 You do not have to carry the weight of the world on your own shoulders, reach out to someone who can help you and that you trust.
