About Us

VFW Post 679, along with the South Jersey Vietnam Veterans Association, Military Order of the Purple Heart, Disabled American Veterans, and the POW/MIA Awareness committee of Gloucester County, have raised over $25,000 for veterans in the form of packages sent over seas, scholarships to their children, and the needs of their families in 2011. We could not do this without the help and support of all of our good friends in the Gloucester County area. Thank you in advance for your continued support. Please refer to our donors' page in the directory to see those major corporations in the area that have supported us in our promises to our veteran community.
