Since 1914 the Ladies Auxiliary to the Veterans of Foreign Wars of the United States has worked to ensure
that America's veterans will not be forgotten and those who need assistance will get it. To help achieve those goals, each
year donations are made to help make life better for active-duty military personnel, veterans and their families, and America's
communities. With nearly 600,000 members in the United States, Guam and Panama, the Ladies Auxiliary VFW actively
supports our troops as well as veterans and their families.
Since the War on Terror began, care packages have been sent to troops in Iraq, Afghanistan, Kuwait, Qatar
and other locations around the world. Members also donate to Operation Uplink which supplies free long-distance
calling cards to active-duty military and hospitalized veterans to help them stay in touch with their families.
