WHY JOIN US?

Passion and Commitment - these are the two words most associated with our organization. Other organizations may demonstrate these qualities to some degree, but for members of the Catholic War Veterans, we take it a bit further... Back to our roots.

     

Having served our nation in uniform we know that "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness" are not freedoms that come to us without sacrifice. Our founding fathers pledged to each other "their lives, their fortunes, and their sacred honor" to provide these freedoms to their posterity. 

 

Each of us as citizens of this nation are charged with defending our Constitution and our Democratic Republic. As Catholics we are bound by our faith in God and the teachings of our Lord Jesus Christ to do this with a spirit of charity and compassion. Jesus, however, never said that where faith and morals are concerned, inaction rules the day.

 

Today, the CWV keeps faith with this mandate of our founder by providing the services of our national and local area V.A. Service Officers free of charge to those members and other veterans who request professional assistance in preparing and defending their claims for federal veterans benefits. 

 

As a Congressionally Chartered organization, the CWV is privileged to be able to provide face-to-face testimony before our nation's law makers with a mandate backed by federal law on behalf of all veterans and their families. By joining the CWV you can be sure that your voice will be heard in the halls of our government. 

 

With Posts located across the country our members are able to provide assistance programs tailored to the needs of their local communities and those local citizen-soldiers of our National Guard and Reserves. 

 

Becoming a CWV member is more than exercising charity and providing service. Members enjoy the camaraderie and respect of fellow veterans. Each individual has a distinct story to tell, and in the CWV we listen... and we remember. 

 

We remember that it is the individual veteran and their family who have volunteered and put their lives on the line for the rest of us. They have served and sacrificed and they deserve to be remembered for their honor and their valor. These are the true role models for our youth to emulate and admire. Working together we can assure our predecessors that their memory is preserved. 

 

 

If you desire to make a real difference for Good in people's lives... 

If you desire that no veteran, their spouse, or their orphans get left behind... 

If you care about liberty, justice, and the future freedom of your community and nation... 

We salute you and welcome you to join us!
