Day of Service May 17

For the 2025 Day of Service, we’re stepping out into the community again, this time to support the 17th of May (Syttende Mai) Parade in Ballard. We’ll be assisting parade organizers by filling essential volunteer roles, including: security, set-up, parade check-in. We’ll also have an entry in the parade so there are a variety of opportunities to participate!

This is a fantastic opportunity to represent Post 3063 in one of Seattle’s most beloved cultural traditions, while continuing our mission of veterans serving our community.

Once the parade wraps up, we’ll wind down with drinks near the post, raising a glass to our shared service and fellowship.

📝 Ready to volunteer? SIGN UP HERE!

Let’s show Seattle what the VFW is all about: service, solidarity, and spirit. We hope to see you there!

District 2 Fundraiser recap

Thank you to everyone who came out to our District 2 Spring Brunch Fundraiser April 5!

We had a full house, beautiful gift baskets, and great energy all around. Big thanks to the scouts for their help, the Fremont Rotary Club for showing up to support, and all the volunteers from the District posts and VFW 2289 Auxiliary who made the event run smoothly, including our very own Comrade Aaron Cook for cooking up a fantastic brunch.

It was a great way to kick off the weekend and rally around a cause we care about, raising over $2,000 for the District 2 youth essay program. Your support helps make scholarships and opportunities possible for local students.

Thanks again to everyone who donated, attended, or pitched in. We couldn’t have done it without you!
