VFW Auxiliary Magazine

Every member receives six issues of the VFW Auxiliary Magazine per year.  Read about successful activities conducted by other Auxiliaries around the U.S., the latest information on the National Programs, the National President's travels to see every Department, the newest member benefits, the candidates running for National Guard, and much more.


Tips for getting items published in the VFW Auxiliary Magazine

The Editors of your VFW Auxiliary Magazine are always trying to develop interesting stories and are delighted to receive your news and photos.  As with other media outlets, stories that are unique, new, or of special interest to Auxiliary members are going to take precedence over the more routine ones.


Do not send election or installation reports; routine social events and anniversaries; Department or National Officers' visits to local or Department meetings; or obituaries, except for a National Line Officer or Past National President.  Instead, send information on your various activities for our National Programs.  Did you participate in Make A Difference Day?  Or a Stand Down?  Do you have or know someone who has a son, daughter, grandson, or granddaughter who was stationed overseas and has a special story about Operation Uplink TM?  Was there some particular event that your Auxiliary conducted that was very unusual and/or very successful?


Because the magazine has to be written up to two months in advance of the publication date, there is an unfortunate delay between the receipt of information and when it is published, so don't expect to see your article published for at least 6-8 months.


Send materials as soon as possible after your event occurs to:
