The VFW National Home for Children

The Veterans of Foreign Wars National Home for Children mission is to provide children, youth and families of members of the VFW and Ladies Auxiliary opportunities for growth and development in a nurturing community, and by doing so, will serve as a living memorial to all veterans.

The VFW National Home for Children is a community that is home to orphaned or single parent children of VFW or Ladies Auxiliary members. The home, which was established in 1925 on 160 acres in Eaton Rapids, Mich., emphasizes the values of education, good work habits and sound moral character.

The Veterans of Foreign Wars established the National Home to care for the children and families of our nation’s veterans. The National Home now encompasses 629 acres and the National Home stands today as a tribute to the VFW and Ladies Auxiliary members who help support the facility and the families who call the National Home their home.
