Help assist veterans, their families and caregivers at VA facilities through the VA Voluntary Service Program by sharing your time and talents to perform a wide range of duties.
The Local Veterans Assistance Program facilitates and recognizes volunteer initiatives that contribute to the lives of our nation’s ill and injured heroes. By providing resources, assistance or help with everyday needs, volunteers allow these heroes and their families to enjoy the best quality of life possible.
VolunteerforVeterans.org is a website where veterans can go to add personal needs, such as lawn care, cleaning needs, caregiver respite, etc. Volunteers can then register and sign-up to help veterans in their local community. Hours are credited to the volunteer through the DAV Local Veterans Assistance Program.
