The VFW provides numerous services to military servicemembers and their families.

The three main efforts of the VFW Military Services department are:
the Military Assistance Program (MAP),
Operation Uplink, and
Unmet Needs.

Each program has a focus of support:
MAP has helped fund Farewell and Welcome Home gatherings for military units worldwide.
Operation Uplink provides free, pre-paid phone cards to servicemembers.
Unmet Needs can give a one-time grant up to $2,500 for qualifying service members and their families experiencing financial hardship.
