Almena VFW Post 8512 Auxiliary

Congratulations to our small but mighty Auxiliary! We Celebrated 75 years! All Auxiliary members were invited to a dinner to celebrate our big milestone Anniversary. A good time was had by all and the food was amazing. It was a pleasant reminder of how someone so small can make such a difference. Congratulations Almena Auxiliary to VFW Post 8512!

💙The VFW Post 8512 Auxiliary would like to give a huge shout-out to the Turtle Lake School District for all their support in our Stockings for Soldiers program.

🪙Congratulations to the Sixth Grade for winning the epic Penny Wars battle!
💰The Eight grade was not far behind. And the Senior class rounded out the top three!

😁These kids raised and donated a total of $1,933.09 for Stockings for Soldiers! You all should be incredibly proud of yourselves. 🇺🇸

Thank you!

🎄 Stockings for Soldiers – VFW Auxiliary Post 8512 🎄
For years, our Auxiliary has packed and sent homemade stockings full of socks, snacks, toiletries, and more to deployed service members. Due to rising shipping costs and customs issues, we’re changing things up this year — and asking for financial donations instead of items.
This ensures every stocking reaches its destination and helps us track exactly what’s sent. Our goal is $4,000, and every dollar makes a difference! 💙
👉 Donations can be mailed to:
VFW Auxiliary Post 8512
ATTN: Treasurer, Mary Vinopal
P.O Box 237
Almena, WI 54805
We’re also looking for deployed service members to receive stockings — please reach out to Auxiliary President, Amanda at (715) 419-0467, if you know someone serving overseas!
Thank you for helping us support our troops and veterans this holiday season. ❤️🇺🇸
