Auxiliary Brothers and Sisters,
As this program year draws closer, it’s incredible to think about all that we’ve achieved together. Now is the perfect time to reflect on our accomplishments and look ahead to new opportunities.
Let’s reach out to other auxiliaries, districts, and departments for fresh ideas for our social media platforms. Brainstorm with fellow members to discover what’s working well for their local auxiliaries.
I’ve been immensely proud and excited to see everyone’s posts on social media and to witness the impactful events taking place across our great state of Colorado within the VFW community.
As we strive to communicate our dedication to serving veterans, keep these tips in mind:
Engage with our local community to share our mission and activities. Capture plenty of photos at events and share them on social media.
Remember the 5 W’s: who, what, where, when, and why of our auxiliary events.
Highlight newsworthy activities, such as hosting events at VA facilities, participating in Wreaths Across America, assisting deployed troops’ families, adopting a unit through the VFW’s Veteran and Military Support Program, collecting supplies for deployed troops, and welcoming troops home at the airport.
Continue your exceptional work for our veterans and communities. Your unwavering dedication, hard work, and passion are truly commendable.
It has been an honor to serve as the 2023-2024 Historian/Media Relations Chairwoman.
Respectfully,
