🏆 Congratulations to Aurora County VFW Post 6554 – Plankinton, South Dakota!

The Department of South Dakota Veterans of Foreign Wars proudly congratulates VFW Aurora County Post 6554 on being selected as the 2026 National Community Service Post Award recipient for the Department of South Dakota.

This prestigious award recognizes the post with the greatest community service impact during the VFW year, honoring exceptional dedication to veterans, youth, families, and communities across the state. Through countless volunteer hours, community projects, charitable giving, and unwavering commitment to service, Post 6554 demonstrated what it truly means to live the VFW motto of "No One Does More for Veterans."

This achievement belongs to every member and volunteer who stepped forward to serve—not for recognition, but because serving their community is simply who they are.

Your dedication has made Aurora County, the Department of South Dakota, and the entire Veterans of Foreign Wars organization proud.

Please join us in congratulating the officers, members, and Auxiliary of VFW Aurora County Post 6554 in Plankinton on this outstanding national recognition!

🇺🇸 Thank you for continuing to serve your community long after your military service ended.
