Commanders, Quartermasters, & Adjutants,

As announced at last week’s National Council of Administration meeting in Crystal City, VA, attached to this email are the program parameters of the newly created Stars & Stripes Society donor recognition program. During last year’s annual planning and implementation meetings, Chief Lipphardt challenged the QMG’s office to develop a new donor program that would go beyond the Legacy Life Member endowment program and would create expanded giving opportunities for everyone; members, companies, or the public. While the VFW Legacy Life Member program will certainly continue, effective March 1, 2025, anyone or any company wishing to support the VFW’s Veteran-focused initiatives can donate to this program by securely visitinghttps://heroes.vfw.org/page/ 166506/action/1 on the VFW website. Here they can join the Stars & Stripes Society as a Patriot Vanguard, Freedom’s Sentinel, or join the ranks of the Founders’ Circle. Please share the flier with anyone you believe may be interested and if you have any questions, feel free to send them my way. Thank you.
