Scout of the Year

- 2/23/2024

Some of our earliest ties to the community involve youth groups, and perhaps none are stronger or more lasting than the relationship between the VFW and America's scouting organizations. Our partnership with the Boy Scouts of America dates back to 1915, when VFW Post 2100 helped establish Troop 1 in Everett, Washington.

Applications are to be submitted by 1 March 2024. Please download and complete the application. Please let the Post Adjutant know that you will be applying.

DATA and NOVA Veterans Win Federal Grant to Help Senior or Disabled Veterans Get to Vaccination Sites

Reston, VA – MAY 5, 2021 – The Dulles Area Transportation Association (DATA) and the Northern Virginia Veterans Association (NOVA Veterans) have been awarded federal funding for a joint project to provide veterans who are disabled or over 65 with transportation to COVID-19 vaccination appointments. While vaccination availability has increased, an escalating critical transportation crisis is preventing our most vulnerable veterans from getting vaccinated. This is particularly problematic for those veterans who receive their medical care from distant Veterans Administration medical facilities and are without reliable transportation.
