Vietnam Veterans Incorporated

Our Origins -

           Vietnam Veterans Incorporated (VVI) was established over forty years ago in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. At that time, many veteran organizations in the area, such as the VFW, predominantly consisted of World War II veterans and did not fully recognize Vietnam veterans as equals. As awareness of PTSD symptoms increased, Vietnam veterans sought a supportive environment where they could openly share their experiences with others who had faced similar challenges. This need for understanding and camaraderie was a driving force behind the formation of VVI.

           

Our core values -

               *Foster and promote comradeship and “Esprit de Corp” among Vietnam Veterans.

               *Assist disabled and needy Vietnam Veterans and the dependents of Vietnam Veterans.

               *To promote the physical and cultural improvement and growth development, self-respect and self-confidence of Vietnam Veterans.

Membership - We have over 600 members in our Pittsburgh and Fayette County PA groups.

Affiliations - We are not affiliated with the Vietnam Veterans of America organization. We are a 501(c)(19) organization.

Meetings –

                Meetings are on the 1st Thursday of each month, 3 PM, in the Main hall at the Brentwood VFW Post 1810 located  at 3801 Saw Mill Run Blvd, Pittsburgh 15227. See the map below for directions. Check our calendar page for any changes due to holidays.

                Also, at 8 AM, each Thursday morning, we get together for breakfast at Gianna Via's located in Whitehall Borough at the Shoppes at Caste Village. In addition to the great food and camaraderie, information is passed along from leadership and many times there is a speaker with updates on current programs for Veterans.

                If you are interested in joining VVI, please join us at  the Breakfast or Monthly meeting.
