Hello all,

Since the first of January, the Life Membership for the National Home has become $100.00. You do not have to be a VFW or VFWA member to be a member. If you are a member, you get a vote on what goes on at the National Home, if you are not a member you do not get a vote. This money helps do the wonderful job they do at the National Home. Do not forget to write down of any of your members become a member, as well as the amount that your Auxiliary sends to the National Home for their Health and Happiness.

The year end reports need to be into your chairmen by April 1, 2026. I would love to see 100% participation in the year-end reports.

It is time that most Posts and Auxiliaries distribute Buddy Poppys. Do not forget that last year’s Memorial Day weekend distribution is reported in this year’s report. You do not have to get permission from the Post to do your distribution, and you do not have to share your money with them. If some of the Post members help you with your project, that is different. Get the kids involved with this, most of the time you will receive more donations.

I really look forward to reading your reports and what your Auxiliary is doing to promote these two great programs.
