COMMUNITY SERVICE

Reaching out into our communities is vital to our organization, developing relationships with community leaders, media, school faculty and local civic groups can greatly assist each post in achieving the VFW mission. 
POST 1503 members are very active within the community and surrounding areas.  The programs and activities conducted range from hosting open houses and picnics to more serious and needed activities which help support and aid the community. 
 
In addition, Post 1503 has appointed Will Triplett, North Region Director of the Virginia Department of Veterans Services – Quantico Office as the post's Benefits Advisor.
 
Members of Post 1503 are active in the community's schools. Each year the Post works with area schools in Prince William County. The Post assists these Schools with guest speakers which help to educate Students on various historical topics and figures.  
Each Year the Post provides needed School Supplies for some local area Schools.  A list is provided by the School Principal with the type of school supply needed and the number and grade of the student.
 
Our Post Honor Guard can be seen at a Veteran's Funeral and Celebration of Life Service.
Auxiliary members send cards which may include sympathy or get well wishes.
