Kansas City, Mo. - As America’s largest organization of combat veterans, the health and well-being of our members, partners, associates and communities is our top priority. For this reason and as our civic responsibility, we have implemented a number of measures to help combat the spread of coronavirus disease (COVID-19).
We have drastically expanded our flexibility of telework to employees of the VFW National Headquarters and Washington D.C. Office. Through this time, we will remain committed to providing our members and all those we assist with top-quality service as the current situation evolves.
VFW members can manage their Online Membership System (OMS) account any time by logging in at vfw.org/login. Members without an online account can easily create one now. For those with general inquiries regarding our organization and services, please visit vfw.org.
We have also instituted a travel ban prohibiting all professional travel by our staff and are exploring teleconference solutions or postponement of upcoming national meetings.
Our executive team is closely monitoring developments on this issue and remains in constant communication to determine the appropriate precautions.
We ask that VFW members who have questions regarding local or state level VFW operations to please contact their respective Post or state VFW Department for guidance. Post contact information can be found here, and Department contact information toward the bottom of the page here.
