DAV Chapter 109 Titusville, FL

09/12/2026

Hi everyone, I haven’t been posting too much lately due to surgery for lung cancer. Feeling well and thankful for my Primary Care Doctor at Viera VA, the medical team at Lake Nona, Orlando VA and very grateful to the doctors at Orlando Health Cancer Institute…from your Jr Vice Commander, DAV Chapter 109.

DAV/DAVA Team 109 thanks everyone for supporting our food insecure veterans over the last several months via our Amazon shopping list. We are beginning our push to gather non-perishable food items to make food bags for veterans/veteran families in need for Thanksgiving. We have added many traditional Thanksgiving meal items to our shopping list and appreciate any support. If you’re not up for ordering a case of something on Amazon, but would like to drop off a box of stuffing or a can of yams, etc feel free. If you are a veteran/veteran family in need, or know of a veteran family in need in North Brevard or South Volusia counties, we are accepting nominations for these Thanksgiving food bags at the DAVA Unit 109 auxiliary at 435 N Singleton Ave, Titusville, FL; Mon-Fri 10 am-2:30 pm. We’ll provide the turkeys too! Stop by the kitchen and fill out a nomination sheet. Thanks for caring.

To any and all veterans living or working in North Brevard or South Volusia counties, please check this out.

Calling all veterans living or working in North Brevard or South Volusia counties!

Your community needs your energy and ideas. Millions of veterans paved the way for you. Are you willing and able to step up again?

Our HQ fought for the Pact Act that had direct, positive results for Gulf War veterans, both in compensation and expanded health care. Our HQ is working hard with regards to the Richard Star Act, while insisting this benefit be fully funded by the federal government rather than offset by cuts to other veterans' earned benefits.

Locally, the DAV is looking to focus local chapters on direct aid to veterans, claims assistance and community outreach. This is the life blood of DAV Chapter 109.

Are you a veteran who had success in your own VA claims journey and would like to volunteer a few hours a day, 1 day a week (or more) to help other veterans in the claims process? We would love to talk to you. If you are still working, we have Saturday hours too! Some bosses give paid time off for charity work…it might not hurt to ask. We provide training and mentoring leading to annual certification.

We get that you have busy lives. What would it take for you to become a part of our veteran community? —do or don’t want to be a service officer…do you have the creative energy to build a veterans club…run a dart board team or organize a spades tournament, a bowling tournament, a fishing club, or if you have other ideas, come and talk to us.

Fellow veterans and friends, it has been a nearly a month since we asked if anyone was willing and able to purchase a case of non-perishable food or hygiene items for our food insecure veterans. Our pantry is looking pretty thin right now.

Our pantry is open 6 days a week to veterans and a partner. If you would like to help out this month, below is our Amazon Wish List. Any items purchased are shipped directly to the Disabled American Veterans (DAV) in Titusville, FL.

Thank you.
