Focusing on Suicide Prevention for our Veterans
RAISING FUNDS
The Operation Daily Battle Training Fund is managed by the ODB Committee and the VFW Riders State Chairmen, as appointed by their respective Department Commanders. This is to include making changes to the Operational Procedures, determining Rally dates and committee members, and disbursement of funds. Funds are held within the Texas VFW Foundation until reimbursement is requested and approved.
Donations can be turned in at the Annual ODB Rally or throughout the year using the Donations Link provided.
WE WELCOME YOUR DONATION

The member can then request a reimbursement or choose to donate the money back into the ODB Fund for another member
