VFW Post 1454 is "Springing Into Action" serving our Veterans, Active Duty Military, and our community. We have a busy Spring/Summer season planned with many volunteer opportunities for Members & non-members alike. Each donation and act of volunteerism helps us advance our cause but it's your ACTIVE PARTICIPATION that enables us to meet & exceed our goals. We're calling all readers of this post to "Spring Into Action!" Visit the Post, attend Post events and join us for a monthly meal. Public Welcome!

VFW Post 1454 Members volunteered their services to Project Paws to help pack snack bags for local children & families in need of supplemental nutrition. Alma Public Schools, Project Paws & the Gratiot County Community Foundation work together to offer these bags to children free of charge! Our Post was pleased to lend a helping hand to this worthy cause.

VFW Post 1454 donated 7 cots to Gratiot County Hope House in St. Louis, Michigan. Founded in May of 2018, Hope House is a transitional & crisis housing center dedicated to meeting the temporary housing needs of the roughly 600 homeless in our county. For more info on the Gratiot County Hope House, visit their website or Facebook page.

The Alma Family Farm & Home store is currently offering a buy-one/donate-one snack promotion. For each snack purchased, Family Farm & Home will donate an additional snack to our Active-Duty Military personnel. VFW Post 1454 will assist by shipping these items to our troops stationed overseas. Please stop by the Alma Family Farm & Home to purchase your snacks and be sure to thank them for their continued support of our Military & local Veterans!
