We’re All Aboard the VFWA “Scholar” Ship!

Our ship has begun its maiden voyage for the 2024-2025 Academic Year and has plans to stop at numerous posts and districts!

Join the fun and help our future!

The deadline has passed for the October 31, 2024, deadline for students to participate in the Patriot’s Pen Essay Contest and Voice of Democracy Audio Essay Contest. By this time, VFW posts are judging the entries submitted and should be selecting their winners to send to their districts for judging. From there it goes to the Department for judging.

A BIG “thank you” to all the auxiliaries that have participated in spreading the word about these two magnificent scholarships, and remember . . .

celebrate the winners!
