VFW National Home posted by Ben on Monday, June 20th, 2011
Since its founding in 1925, the VFW National Home for Children has grown from an old frame farm house to a sprawling campus with playgrounds, park areas, and multiple buildings, including single-family homes, a community center and gymnasium, child care center, guest lodge, chapel and administrative offices.
The National Home’s services have also evolved to meet the changing needs of America’s military and veterans’ families. Through our Helpline and our on-campus programs, we are able to help families and children through times of crisis, both here on our beautiful campus and in their own communities nationwide.
The Home offers a place to live for children of deploying troops, single-parent veteran families in crisis, families with a veteran-parent going through vocational rehabilitation, and chidlren of veterans who need a loving, safe place to live.
To support the children there or to find out how you can request living at the Home call (800) 424-8360 or its Helpline (800) 313-4200.
