ADMINISTRATIVE OPERATIONS:
The “Leadership Reference Guide” has been discontinued in its traditional format. In an effort to better
serve the members of the Veterans of Foreign Wars of the United States, we have created "VFW
Training and Support," where you will find training material relating to Membership Recruiting and
Retention; Community Service, Youth Scholarships and Activities; Media and Public Relations; Post
Service Officers; Member & Officer Training, Forms and Templates; and Veterans & Military Support.
To utilize these valuable training guides, videos, forms and templates, please login at www.vfw.org,
proceed to “My VFW” and click the link “VFW Training and Support.”
The online “Document Repository” will be maintained as a system of managing documents utilized
primarily by Department Officers and members of the National Council of Administration.
VFW FOUNDATION:
BURGER KING FRANCHISEE OWNED RESTAURANTS SUPPORTING UNMET NEEDS IN
JULY
The VFW Foundation is proud to announce that for the 2nd consecutive year, selective Burger King
(BK) Franchisee Owned restaurants will be raising funds for the Unmet Needs program during all or
parts of July 2015. Since 2007, BK restaurants have contributed over $3.1 million for the program. BK
customers are encouraged to donate $1 or more during their food purchase. This past November,
participating BK restaurants collected over $480,000 during Military Families Month for Unmet Needs.
Proceeds will help military families needing assistance to pay for rent, mortgage, utilities, medical
expenses, vehicle repairs and food/basic necessities.
4
We ask that you mobilize Post members, their families and friends to patronize their local Burger King
and to thank the restaurant manager for his/her commitment to veterans and military families. Also,
be sure to publicize the campaign by mentioning Burger King on VFW Post websites, message boards
outside Post buildings, newsletters, or ask members to organize a BK food night-out. It’s only natural
that VFW members would support Burger King Franchisee Owners who strongly believe in patriotism
by actively assisting U.S. military service personnel.
This year selective restaurants in the following areas will be participating: San Antonio, Texas, Greater
Philadelphia/South New Jersey, Charlotte, North Carolina, Florence/Sumter, South Carolina and the
District of Columbia/Maryland. To determine the nearest participating Burger King restaurants in
your area, please go to www.vfw.org.
POST FUNDRAISING WORKSHOP
This is a friendly reminder that the VFW Foundation will be conducting a workshop entitled “Grants
and Fundraising Ideas for Posts,” at the 116th VFW National Convention on Tuesday, July 21, from
2pm to 3pm, in rooms 401/402 at the David L. Lawrence Convention Center in Pittsburgh, PA. (Rooms
are subject to change.)
THE HOME DEPOT FOUNDATION COMMUNITY IMPACT GRANTS PROGRAM REMINDER
A reminder that applications are still being accepted for the 2015 Home Depot (HD) Foundation
Community Impact Grant.
Eligible VFW Posts may receive up to $5,000 to fix up their buildings; however, of course, there is no
guarantee of funding. To begin the process, go to the following internet link:
http://homedepotfoundation.org/page/applying-for-a-grant.
To help you complete the application, the VFW Foundation has prepared a step-by-step how-to-apply
guide. Any deviation from this guide will most likely result in not being able to submit the application.
To receive this how-to-apply guide, send an email to:
Type the following in the email subject heading:
foundation@vfw.org
Home Depot Guide Request
The application must be filled out via the Internet only (no telephone calls, emails or written
submissions to HD will be accepted nor will you be able to turn this application in at your local HD
store).
If your Post receives funding, it will come in the form of HD gift cards that can be used to buy materials
at your local HD store. You will need to recruit Post members or other community volunteers to do the
work. The project must be completed within 6 months. You will also be required to fill out a final
project report. Failure to do so will negatively impact your Post’s ability to receive any future funding
from HD.
After submission of the application, you should receive an email response from HD Foundation, usually
in six weeks, letting you know if you received the grant.
DON’T DELAY. Once the grant application process is closed, the Community Impact Grant will not
accept new applications until February 2016. Should you have any further questions or need to discuss
special concerns, please contact Richard Freiburghouse, VFW Foundation, Manager, at (816) 968-1124
or rfreiburghouse@vfw.org.
GOOD LUCK!
