Subscription dues provide an annual VFW membership for 365 days. Instead of every annual membership expiring at the end of the calendar year, your membership expires one year from the date your dues are processed by VFW National.
For example, if VFW National processes your annual dues on February 15, your membership will remain active through February 14 of the following year. To prevent a lapse in membership, renew your dues before the expiration date shown on your membership card or renewal notice.
Subscription dues should not be confused with automatic renewal. Automatic renewal only applies if you separately authorize the VFW to charge your approved payment method each year.
Annual membership dues for VFW Post 759 are $45. Your renewal is due on the anniversary of the date your membership or most recent annual renewal was processed.
Current members may create an account at VFW.org to manage their membership and pay annual dues online.
If you are joining for the first time, we recommend contacting Post 759 before completing an online application. An online membership may register you as a Member-at-Large instead of assigning you to Post 759. If you have already joined online, we will gladly help transfer your membership to our Post.
Contact us at VFW759@gmail.com for assistance with joining, renewing or transferring your membership.
