VFW POST 4353
WE NEED YOUR HELP!
PLEASE STEP UP AND VOLUNTEER
DON’T WAIT FOR SOMEONE ELSE TO DO IT — WE NEED YOU!
Please look over the opportunities above and choose at least one way you can help. An hour, a two-hour shift, one special event, or a regular weekly commitment can make a tremendous difference.
Our events cannot happen without volunteers. Every hour you give helps strengthen VFW Post 4353, support our veterans, and keep our Post active in the community.
Please don’t assume someone else will fill the spot. If you can help, step forward and sign up.
PLEASE SIGN UP TODAY!
Thank you for stepping forward and supporting VFW Post 4353.
To volunteer, ask to speak with Randy, Dee, or any Post or Auxiliary officer.
Randy Frank, Commander
