Congratulations to the six student veterans selected to complete the 2024/2025 VFW-Student Veterans of America Legislative Fellowship class! “Advocacy is a core pillar of the VFW’s mission, and it’s about much more than our leaders testifying before Congress. It’s also about mentorship and empowering the next generation of veteran advocates to use their voices to do what they believe is right.” – VFW National Commander Al Lipphardt
