Troop Support
Adopt-A-Unit Program
Our members offer support to the military community in many different ways, whether that means helping military families get through long deployments or hosting send-off and welcome home events. The VFW knows how important troop support is because all of our members have been there.
Military Assistance Program (MAP)
Our Military Assistance Program (MAP) is the outstretched hand between the local VFW and military community, offering support around the world.
Since 2005, MAP has sponsored events supporting more than 2.3 million service members and their families.
A large part of MAP is the Adopt-a-Unit program, providing VFW Posts and their Auxiliaries the opportunity to adopt hundreds of military units around the world. Adopt-a-Unit's goal is to develop supportive relationships with units before, during and after deployments to help deliver the vast network of resources the VFW has available to the military.
