2011-2012 National Military Services (NMS)

The Veterans of Foreign Wars is again in the forefront of patriotism as the organization and its members find ways to show support for America and her armed forces. As our nation fights terrorism, thousands of our active-duty and Reserve service members, along with the National Guard, will be deployed overseas and stateside for what is expected to be a tough battle. Supporting our troops now is more important then ever before. It is our duty as Americans to do our part to keep their spirits and morale up.

The Department of Michigan VFW has an on going program set up to assist our troops. We have adopted units from Michigan and have been sending items like cassettes, cassette players, Walkmans, Game Boys, video CDs, DVDs and players. We have sent laptop computers and digital cameras to several units. Department has sent out hundreds of Operation Uplink Phone Cards to our troops overseas and state side to our veterans that are hospitalized.  We are also working with Family Support Groups so that the family members at home are helped out to.

We are asking each Post to donate what they can to help out our troops. Donations must be sent to Department of Michigan.
