The second annual VFW Day of Service kicked off May 6, marking the start of veteran-led community service projects to take place throughout the month. The VFW Day of Service was born from the organization’s award-winning #StillServing campaign launched in 2020 to recognize the ongoing dedication of veterans and service members who continue to serve through service to their communities. More than 475 community service events will take place this year — a 20 percent increase over participation in 2022 — and include a wide range of events such as constructing accessibility accommodations for disabled veterans, beautifying parks and streets, food drives and cookouts for veterans. It’s not too late to sign up. The VFW urges its members and all veterans interested in participating to visit VFWDayofService.org to register their event on the interactive Day of Service map.
