WHO WE ARE
The Veterans of Foreign War (VFW) are made up of United States veterans of overseas conflict. There are over 7,500 local VFW posts throughout the United States. We represent the Santa Paula VFW post. Our members are comprised of individuals who participated in overseas conflicts as far back as World War II (1941) and as recent as the Iraq War (2003).
OUR MISSION
We continue to promote patriotism in our local community and those surrounding areas. This is done with military demonstrations and practices that are performed throughout the year. Our local VFW Post also contributes to local charities. One of the primary purposes of our chapter is to ensure the care of veterans and their families.
GET INVOLVED
The Santa Paula VFW Post is shrinking and needs a new influx of members. We ask that all veterans of oversea conflict interested in assisting the Santa Paula community, veterans, and themselves please contact us. We are also here to assist all members with information about their benefits and entitlements that are due to them after military service.
