Blood Drive Nov. 6
Category: Community Outreach
Buddy Poppy sign ups
Ballard Eagleson VFW Post 3063 is looking for volunteers to staff our tables at local markets and during Veterans Day. Handing out Buddy Poppies is a meaningful way to honor fallen comrades, support veterans in need, and connect with our community.
Your time at a table — whether just a few hours or a whole day — makes a real difference. Every poppy handed out carries a message of remembrance and hope.
Sign up today and be part of this proud tradition of service! Contact our Buddy Poppy chair, Comrade Gail Enger, at [email protected].
Blood drive on 9/11
From Bloodworks NW:
We’re still looking for 25 generous donors to roll up their sleeves and donate blood on 9/11 at Ballard Eagleson VFW 3063—and we’re calling on you to help make a life-saving impact.
Think about how we often spend an hour: scrolling through our phones, catching up on a show… it goes by in a flash. But for local patients in need, one hour can mean the world.
In just one hour, you can donate a pint of blood and that simple act could save a life.
If you’re eligible, will you commit to donating next week? To sign up, visit https://www.bloodworksnw.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/redirectgroup.html?s=606A or call 1-800-398-7888.
SeafoodFest recap
A huge shoutout to everyone who came out to support VFW Post 3063 at the Ballard SeafoodFest on July 12 – 13!
We’re incredibly grateful for those who helped set up and staff our booth throughout the weekend. Your time, energy, and dedication to our veteran community made a big impact and helped us connect with so many great folks in Ballard.
SeafoodFest volunteers needed
Our biggest community outreach and recruiting event of the year — Ballard SeafoodFest — is coming up July 12-13. We need members to help set-up, staff and tear down the booth. Pictured is the schedule. The greatest need for volunteers (and busiest day) is July 12. If you can volunteer for a shift, please contact Comrade Teeter at [email protected].
