The mission of the VFW National Home for Children is to provide children and the families of active-duty military, war veterans, and descendent of VFW and its Auxiliary, opportunities for growth and development in a nurturing community, and to serve as a living memorial to all veterans.

 

It was founded in 1925 as a place where the families left behind by war – mothers and children, brothers and sisters – could remain together, keeping the family circle intact even when their serviceman didn’t come home.

 

Today’s families face different challenges – reintegration, post-traumatic stress, high unemployment, and rehabilitation from battlefield injuries, among others – and the National Home has evolved over their decades-long history to meet these changing needs.

 

Post Relief funds can be used for this donation. Multiple donations are allowed.
