Ukiah area Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 1900 (VFW) has been sponsoring a breakfast fundraiser for decades. The next one is Saturday, Aug. 9, 2025, from 8 a.m. – noon at Veterans Memorial Hall, 293 Seminary Ave., Ukiah.
The Post cannot do it alone. Redwood Empire Lions Club volunteers have been catering the breakfast: Eggs, hash browns, biscuits, gravy, sausage, and a drink – not a bad deal at $10!
Ukiah Elks Lodge #1728 has stepped up and gifted the local VFW Post 1900 a check for $550 per breakfast for three quarters.
Though growing older and a bit infirm these intrepid volunteers have persevered even post-COVID, opening for the VFW Breakfasts quarterly: May, August, November and February – always the second Saturday.
Joel Greenfield is the Commander of VFW Post 1900.
The proceeds go towards Veterans’ assistance. Funds raised also go to the many worthwhile projects the VFW supports, flowing back into the community a variety of ways, including student scholarships.
One huge responsibility of the VFW is maintaining the flags in Ukiah Cemetery. At last count, the Post cares for 468 regulation “casket flags.” Flags currently span WWI through Vietnam. Last year the local Post needed to add 20 additional poles to accommodate the need.
The VFW is on Facebook. For questions, call (707) 234-7392.
