Serving veterans since 1926

History

Founded in 1926, the Nathan Hale VFW Post 1469 has been serving Long Island veterans from the United States Military for nearly 100 years. We are a proud gathering place for veterans in our community and, as part of the Veterans of Foreign Wars organization, we dedicate ourselves to supporting those who have served our country and their families through camaraderie, advocacy, and service. We strive to uphold the values of loyalty, respect, and honor while providing a welcoming and supportive environment for all veterans.
At Nathan Hale VFW Post 1469, we host a variety of events and activities designed to bring veterans together, support our local community, and honor the sacrifices made by our service members. Our members enjoy regular social events, including bi-weekly meetings, fundraising activities, and veterans' appreciation events. Additionally, we offer outreach programs, such as assistance with VA claims and resources, ensuring that no veteran is left behind.
Whether you're looking for a place to connect with other veterans, engage in meaningful community service, or simply relax and enjoy some time with friends, Nathan Hale VFW Post 1469 is here for you. Join us in strengthening the bond between veterans and ensuring that the legacy of our service is passed on to future generations.
