Description
Conducted direct membership outreach at the grocery store engaging a retired Chief Petty Officer in conversations about the VFW its mission and the services and benefits it provides to veterans and their families. Discussed his reasons for not previously joining the VFW and addressed questions about membership. Provided the Chief with a membership application and the Post Commander’s contact card and personally invited him to visit VFW Post 1679 for a facility walkthrough and meet-and-greet with our members. The goal was to establish a personal connection demonstrate what our Post has to offer and encourage him to consider joining the VFW and becoming active member of our organization.
