AUXILIARY TO VFW POST 8573

Established in 1914, the VFW Auxiliary is one of the nation’s oldest veterans’ service organizations and our members are the relatives of those who have served in overseas combat. The Auxiliary to VFW Post 8573 is here to serve veterans, active-duty service members and their families. We also strive to promote the memory of Veterans of the past by helping the living.

We are a non-profit organization with goals to assist Hospital and Nursing Home Veterans and their families. We are here to promote Americanism, Scholarship and Voice of Democracy programs. Being a Texas Veterans of Foreign Wars Auxiliary member opens the door for you to a larger family. We embrace each new member with love and caring. We hope to see you at our next monthly meeting which is held the second Monday of each month at 7:00 pm.
