Get involved

Volunteer with our chapter

You do not have to be a Vietnam-era veteran to help. Neighbors, families, and friends make our outreach possible — from event days to quiet one-on-one support.

Ways to serve

Community outreach

Help at local awareness tables, hand out resource sheets, and greet visitors who want to learn about Vietnam-era benefits and chapter programs.

Event support

Set up chairs, guide parking, run check-in, or assist with memorial and Veterans Day gatherings across Wales and St. Clair County.

Peer & family support

Ride-alongs to appointments, phone check-ins, or sitting with a spouse during a long VA paperwork afternoon — small hours that matter.

Admin & digital help

Flyer design, email lists, photo help at events, or keeping the chapter calendar current — skills from home that keep us organized.

What to expect

  • Flexible shifts — a few hours a month is enough to start
  • Orientation with Director Brian W. Strickland or a chapter lead
  • No sales pitches — we match you to work you are comfortable with
  • Youth and family helpers welcome when supervised for public events
