The Chapter
We are the Vietnam Veterans of America - Chapter 510 Northern New Jersey.
We are a group of over 200 Vietnam Veterans (as well as Associate Vietnam Veterans of America - AVVA). We are PROUD of the fact that we are Vietnam Veterans.
The Chapter was started around 1992. We meet at the VFW Post 6255 on Pompton Turnpike (Route 23) in Cedar Grove, N. J., on the first Friday of each month at 7:30 PM. Check the Events calendar for changes to the regular meeting schedule.

Our goal is to foster, encourage and promote improvement of the condition of the Veterans. We bring together people, without regard to race, religion, or sex, who shared a common experience and any adult who wants to be an Associate Member to help further the association's goals.
We raise funds for various charities including local causes and other Veterans groups as well as our own initiatives.
We were one of the first Chapters to to promote and support the NJ Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Holmdel, NJ (PNC Arts Center exit off the Garden State Parkway).
We have produced TV shows pertaining to Veterans Issues for public broadcast (see Links Page to view the shows).
We speak at Northern New Jersey schools about the Vietnam experience to students of all ages to be sure future generations will not forget.
We represent Veterans causes and concerns to the public at large to raise non-member awareness. We promote activities that bring VVA members together for social and charitable causes.
