Veterans to lead service projects around the world; all veterans invited to participate
The Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) is proud to announce the fifth annual VFW Day of Service &mdash; a dedicated day of service led by veterans throughout the country and the world &mdash; will kick off the first Saturday in May (May 2), marking the start of veteran-led community service projects to take place throughout the month. Last year, more than 2,300 events were held worldwide, and this year is on track to exceed that total.
&ldquo;For the past four years, thousands of VFW members and veterans around the world have joined together through VFW Day of Service to continue a legacy of service beyond the uniform,&rdquo; said VFW National Commander Carol Whitmore. &ldquo;Their dedication to strengthening communities, helping neighbors and bringing people together reflects the very best of who we are. We are proud to see Day of Service 2026 build on that momentum and create an even greater impact in communities around the world.&rdquo;
VFW Day of Service began in 2022 as an outgrowth of the organization&rsquo;s <a href="http://www.todaysvfw.org/" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank">Still Serving</a>
campaign that highlights the ongoing dedication of veterans and service members who continue to uplift and improve their communities after their military service has ended. This year&rsquo;s VFW Day of Service is sponsored by Humana, USAA, CenterWell and loanDepot.
Veterans are more likely to volunteer in their communities than their civilian counterparts, according to a recent civic health survey1 of veterans. The study also found that veterans donate to charities, register to vote and remain more actively engaged in civic and community life than civilians. 
The VFW is calling on all veterans across America and around the world to join in the VFW Day of Service to show that veterans never stop serving.
