“DAV helps beyond just filing a claim. It is more like a family. And when people feel the love and see how DAV provides for different needs, they want to be part of it.”— Luis Cortes, Army, National Guard and Army Reserve veteran, DAV Department of Texas senior vice commander and winner of the 2025 Recruiter Rally

DAV is more than an organization—it’s a community built on care, connection and purpose. Every time you invite a fellow veteran to join, you’re helping them find that same sense of belonging.

Recruit one new DAV member by June 30, 2026, and you’ll be entered to win a trip for two to the 2026 DAV & Auxiliary National Convention in Orlando, Aug. 1–4, 2026, including hotel and $2,500 in spending money.

Because when one veteran finds family, we all grow stronger. Learn more at www.dav.org/rally.
