The National Home Board of Trustees celebrates the service of District 12 Trustee, Virginia Carman, as she has completed her term as trustee. Virginia, from the Department of Washington, has served on the VFW National Home for Children Board of Trustees since 2011, representing the Departments of Arkansas, New Mexico, Oklahoma and of course, Texas. Virginia served as National President in 2007 and was an Ex Officio member of the Board of Trustees at that time. Carman joined the VFW Auxiliary to the VFW in 1970 and is also a longtime member of the Military Order of the Cootie Auxiliary and has served as a Jr. Girl. Virginia describes her time serving as a trustee as “one of the most rewarding experiences [of her life]. ” We thank you, Virginia, for your service and dedication to your VFW National Home for Children.
