We conquered the Walk + 5K in Memory of our Brothers and Sisters who lost their struggle and for the ones continuing the fight each day.

Thank you to Center for Emotional Wellness for your amazing Community Partnership. We are so blessed to be a part of this event for 5 years now.

The inspiring work they do in our County is incredible. Great job to the whole Team! We even saw a few friends from up the road VFW Post 10374 Avondale Heights, Texas and WCCA - Meals On Wheels Wise County

☆ Wise County America250 Parade ☆

A wonderful turnout, we represented Chapter 70 and Auxiliary Unit 70 during yesterday's America 250 Countywide Celebration.

Thank you to our members who joined us to celebrate with our beautiful community.

☆ Shared from DAV ☆

Sept. 10, also known as World Su***de Prevention Day, serves as a reminder of the importance of connection, compassion and looking out for one another.

A simple conversation with somebody who’s going through a hard time can open the door to support. If you know a veteran who may be struggling, take a moment to check in. Listen to them without judgment, let them know you care, and encourage them to reach out for help when they need it.

Together, we can help create a community where veterans know they have someone in their corner.

If you are a veteran in crisis or concerned about one, 24/7, confidential crisis support is available for free. Dial 988, then press 1.

Don't forget this Saturday! Join us and watch for our DAV float. We are so excited to be participate in this amazing event.
