Dear Sample,

It’s with great pride I present you with the enclosed 2018-2019 VFW Calendar.

Your VFW Calendar is a gift from the VFW in thanks for your dedication to your fellow veterans. Especially those in Pennsylvania. I hope it inspires you to continue your commitment by rushing a gift of $10, $15 or even $20 today to help aid struggling service members and veterans.

Your VFW Calendar is filled with majestic views of our nation’s most breathtaking scenery. I’m sure you’ll enjoy it! It also contains information on VFW programs available for veterans, service members and their families, as well as important patriotic holidays and observances.

Please display it in a prominent place in your home, office or Post. Your VFW Calendar pays tribute to the service of every veteran who has honorably worn the uniform ... and reminds everyone who sees it of the urgent situations America’s veterans face today.

Thousands of veterans are now home from the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. They need immediate assistance with medical care ... dealing with “invisible trauma” like Post-Traumatic Stress and Traumatic Brain Injury ... education ... and finding jobs.

Many of these seriously wounded veterans will require incredibly expensive care for the rest of their lives as a result of their service to our country.

I’m calling on all VFW members to step forward today in support of every wounded veteran who needs a “hand up”!

You can show your support by referring to your VFW Calendar for important dates to display the United States flag. And please remember to honor the dates of historical events and significant milestones in our nation’s military history.

Join me in displaying the United States flag proudly for all to see — especially on patriotic holidays which are clearly marked in your VFW Calendar. It’s a simple gesture, but a powerful one. You can visit heroes.vfw.org/flag and print a free flag poster for you to display at your home.

(over, please)

But most importantly, I need you to do two things immediately:

FIRST — Please complete and return the attached Program Participation Form so I know your VFW Calendar arrived in good condition.

SECOND — Rush your contribution to help the VFW fight for your rights and protect veterans of every generation!

Don’t forget: Your gift benefits veterans in your Department.

I’ll see to it that your generosity will:

• Fuel the fight on Capitol Hill for pro-veteran legislation that puts veterans first.

• Expand our service officer network to help veterans battle for fair and timely benefits compensation.

• Help veterans applying for financial assistance, find jobs and care for their families.

Our programs are often the only thing standing between homelessness and paying the mortgage for military families ... between victory and hardship for a wounded veteran filing a VA claim ... between unemployment and opportunities for education and rebuilding their careers.

I know you value the VFW’s vigilance on the Hill ... our tireless advocacy for legislation that puts you, a proud American veteran, first! And I know it matters to you that every veteran gets the fair treatment they deserve.

That’s why I have to hear from you today.

Your VFW Calendar is a gift in appreciation of your dedication to the ideals we fought for, and your dedication to fellow veterans.

Please join with other loyal VFW members to ensure our programs continue as long as even a single veteran must turn to us in an hour of need.

FOR VETERANS,

Brian Duffy Adjutant General

P.S. I hope you enjoy your 2018-2019 VFW Calendar. Please return your Program Participation Form today so I know you received it. And please, send a gift in support of VFW programs that benefit veterans in your own Department.

P.P.S. I hope you’ll remember to display the United States flag, especially on patriotic holidays, to show your support for America’s brave service members and proud veterans.
