The Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) Day of Service is a nationwide initiative that highlights the continued commitment of America’s veterans to serve their communities. Long after military service has ended, VFW members remain dedicated to making a positive impact where they live, work, and raise their families.
At Reinholds VFW Post 6759, the Day of Service reflects our enduring mission of patriotism, service, and community leadership. Our members proudly continue their service here at home through hands-on volunteerism and community support.
The Fill the Deuce Campaign is a new community outreach initiative launched by Reinholds VFW Post 6759 and proudly featured as part of our VFW Day of Service.
This initiative brings together Post members, volunteers, and community partners to collect non-perishable food items, hygiene products, and essential household supplies for local families and veterans in need. Donations are loaded into our VFW “Deuce” vehicle and delivered directly to Peter’s Porch, a local organization dedicated to supporting individuals and families facing food insecurity.
Fill the Deuce reflects our Post’s ongoing commitment to identifying meaningful ways to serve the community and respond to local needs. All donations collected through this initiative are given to Peter’s Porch, ensuring a direct and local impact.
