169 Members to be 100 %
Calling ALL Auxiliary members!!!
This is our number as of today.We stand at 94.93% and I believe we can find 169 new or rejoin members to make 100%.Don’t you?
Most of us joined this organization simply as the spouse or dependent of our veteran. Then we began to learn about this great group. The VFW and VFW Auxiliary is an organization that exists as a non-profit service organization. Our ultimate goal is to be an active voice on Capitol Hill and our local communities for the rights and benefits for our country’s heroes, our veterans. As members, we learn to look beyond ourselves and experience the wonder of making a difference. Ken Blanchard stated, “There’s a difference between interest and commitment. When you’re interested in doing something, you do it only when it’s convenient. When you’re committed to something, you accept no excuses – only results.” Let’s all renew our commitment, go out and find those new or rejoin members and train them in our vision.
Please let me know if you have recruited 5, 10 or 20 members. I really would like to acknowledge your efforts. I am proud of you and all you are doing. At this point, I still have only one written report and one verbal report.
As this year quickly comes to an end, let’s get those new members trained and involved so that they will be interested in taking a position during our elections in April. Get them involved.
I am only a call away. Please let me help you.
Remember we have a Council of Administration in March.Please make plans to come, learn and have fun.
See you there!!! Dianne

Hello Everyone,
Our veterans and active duty military should be on the very top of our priority list. After all, they’re the reason we have the freedom that we have to do what we do. There are numerous opportunities to explore ways to advocate for them. Let’s all reach out and advocate for our heroes; touch someone and make a better place for all of them. Not just our veterans and active duty military but their families and our communities.
REMEMBER ALL OUR PRIORITY GOALS! ALL OF THEM ARE IMPORTANT.
Report, report, report!
If you don’t subscribe to the VFW Action Corps Weekly, I strongly urge you to do so. That is the best way of keeping up with what’s going on in Washington.
Thanks,
Shearon (Sherrye) Saucier
Legislative Ambassador
