VFW Post 1385

The consolidation of our two Posts into one building marks the beginning of a new era for Uxbridge. The Legion held its first meeting in town on May 19, 1919, and the VFW on August 26, 1945. These organizations are essential to the fabric of our community. We are committed to ensuring that they both remain well into the future.

We are excited about the opportunities ahead for a rebirth and growth of our facility as a place where Veterans can gather socially and honor our brothers’ and sisters’ legacy of military service and sacrifice. We also want to make sure that we have a wonderful gathering space for both Veterans and the community at large to celebrate the milestones of our lives. We are asking for your help in this endeavor.

We invite you to use this page to design a memorial brick of your choosing that will be installed on our property. The actual design of our “Memorial Garden” is still in the planning stages. It may be along the strip between the parking lot and Route 16, on the large lawn between the main building and the outdoor pavilion or somewhere else on the property. The intent is for a large enough area to allow the memorial to grow over time. The tentative date for initial installation is the summer of 2025.

All proceeds from this campaign will be dedicated to building improvements and remodeling of the facilities, inside and out. As an Incorporated 501(c)(19) Tax Exempt Veterans Organization, all or part of your donation may be tax deductible (we suggest that you check with your tax advisor to confirm). 

The brick you design will be installed permanently on our property as a lasting testament to the person, organization or cause you wish to memorialize for generations to come. 

The bricks are available in three sizes. Samples are depicted below. 

4”x8” @ $100 8”x8” @ $250 12”x12” @ $500 

You can also purchase a 4” x 4” Keepsake Tile for $25 which is yours to keep and display proudly at your home or office. It is a replica of the brick you design. The purchase of a brick (any size) is required to create a Keepsake Tile. The dropdown menu will allow you to buy multiples of the Keepsake Tile, if you wish, to provide as gifts to family members, friends, co-workers, etc. 

You will find an extensive clip art gallery on this site, or you may upload your own at no additional cost. Understand that using clip art does reduce the number of characters that can be engraved per brick. Once you enter all the required information in the “Place Your Order Here” field click “continue” and you will be brought to the “Customize Your Order” page where you can see your brick being created as you type in the message you wish. Feel free to edit your work as the design is not final until you place your order. If you prefer to use a hard copy form to order your brick, send us a note and we can mail you one. The Veterans of Legion Post 33 and VFW Post 1385 sincerely thank you for your kind and gracious support!
