VFW Auxiliary Post 8058:
A Welcoming
Community for Veterans and Families
Welcome to VFW Auxiliary Post 8058!
Serving our community since 1914, we're a growing group of veterans and
families dedicated to honoring those who've served and supporting those who
continue to do so.
Who We Are
We are more than just an organization;
we are a family. Our members include spouses, fathers, mothers, sisters,
brothers, sons, daughters, grandfathers, grandmothers, grandsons, and
granddaughters of those who have honorably served in the Armed Forces of the
United States in a foreign war. We serve and support veterans, active-duty
soldiers, and their families, honoring those who have put their lives on the
line for the daily freedoms we enjoy.
Our Mission and Vision
At VFW Auxiliary Post 8058, we believe
in fostering a welcoming and inclusive environment for veterans and their
families. Our vision is to modernize our organization to be a comfortable place
where everyone can visit, relax, and connect with friends and comrades. We are
committed to creating a vibrant, active community that supports each other and
makes a positive impact.
