Commander's thoughts:

The DAV Auxiliary helps our veterans by volunteering in hospitals and veterans homes, conducting legislative efforts to help encourage our legislators to pass legislation for the health care and benefits that our veterans have earned, to promote patriotism, and participate in several projects throughout the year to help raise funds in order to carry out these projects.

 

Our auxiliary raises funds to be able to give gifts to the Chelsea Soldier Home residents (approximately 225 veterans) at the holidays. Some of these veterans have no families and any small gift is much appreciated.  We are continuously working on this goal to raise funds to purchase holiday gifts.

 

Our auxiliary is always interested in new members, if you are interested in joining,come visit with us at our next meeting 2md Thursday of each month.
