🇺🇸 From the bottom of our hearts — THANK YOU, FAIRBURY. 🇺🇸

The support you showed during Jefferson County Gives was nothing short of incredible. Every donation, every share, every conversation — it all matters more than you know.

We also want to be clear about something important:
The money does NOT just stay in the club.

Here’s where your support actually goes 👇

🇺🇸 Veterans Assistance Program – helping local Veterans when they need it most
⛽ Gas, food, and hotel stays for Veterans traveling through or in crisis
🏥 Hospital and medical equipment for Veterans and community members in need
🏠 Support for homeless Veterans and those at risk
🗣 Advocacy efforts — from right here at home all the way to Washington, D.C., fighting for Veteran benefits
🤝 Buddy Checks & outreach — making sure no Veteran is left behind
🍽 Community meals and events that bring people together and support those who need it
💰 Helping Veterans with their injuries they incurred while in service and navigating the VA system

And beyond that:
Every dollar spent at the VFW — whether it’s a meal, a drink, or an event — helps us keep the doors open so we can continue this mission.

We are not just a place to gather, drink, or party,
We are a lifeline, a support system, and a community hub for Veterans and families right here in Fairbury.

Because at the end of the day:
👉 This is Veterans helping Veterans.
👉 This is a community taking care of its own.

We are incredibly grateful. We are humbled. And we are proud to serve this community.

🇺🇸 Thank you for believing in the mission of VFW Post 3113.
