Text Box: OUR PURPOSE AND GOALS The Ladies Auxiliary Veterans of Foreign Wars was chartered to support our nations’ veterans and their families.  We also strive to better our communities through volunteerism and the promotion of patriotism and Americanism.  We provide direct support to our deployed service personnel through our National Military Services programs, such as:  The Military Assistance Program (sponsoring military units through care packages, hosting events and providing support to family members of deployed soldiers), Unmet Needs (Emergency Financial Assistance programs provide grants to families of deployed or recently returned service members who require immediate monetary help), and Operation Uplink, which connects service members and hospitalized veterans to their loved ones by providing free, pre-paid phone cards and supporting Internet cafes for soldiers deployed overseas.
