WoodmenLife chapters had another busy month! Our members showed their ongoing commitment to family, community and country — and they had some fun at the same time.
Above, Chapter 66 in Huntington, WV, and members of the WoodmenLife Sales Force organized a Celebrating Red, White & Blue® flag display during a Veterans’ appreciation event at a Marshall University football game. The group displayed a 30-foot-by-60-foot American flag during the national anthem.
For its quarterly Common Bond project, Chapter 4155 in San Juan, TX, collected hygiene items for the women served by Mujeres Unidas. The nonprofit organization — the name of which means “Women Together” — provides shelter and support to victims of domestic violence.

On behalf of Chapter 43 in Decatur, AL, members of the WoodmenLife Sales Force honored police officers in Hartselle, AL, and presented the officers and staff with gift cards for lunch. Police Chief Justin Barley said, “We are very thankful to WoodmenLife’s many contributions to our community. They always present a great program that is professional and applicable. It is because of the support and presence of organizations like WoodmenLife that make our community special.” Pictured from left are Colter Calhoun, Jacob Cagle, Police Chief Justin Barley, Cody Gibbs, and Jesse Calvert.
To show their appreciation for teachers, members of Chapter 1 in Columbus, OH, purchased lunch for 45 teachers and staff at Licking Valley Middle School. They also donated two new coffee makers and a supply of coffee pods, soft drinks, water, and snacks for the teachers’ lounge.
