Membership connects you with fellow veterans and supports the free services our chapter provides. Joining is simple — here's how it works:
- Submit the application below. Your information goes directly to our chapter officers, who will follow up with you.
- Come to a chapter meeting — the 4th Tuesday of every month at 6:00 PM, 2126 Knoll Dr., Ventura. We'll welcome you and complete your membership.
- Or reach an officer directly: Commander Charlie Foote at CharlesFoote.1@att.net, or Senior Vice Commander Manuel Gonzales at mgonzalesime@aol.com.
Membership Cost
- DAV life membership is $325 — and free for veterans age 80 or older.
- A minimum down payment of $40 gets you your membership card; the remaining balance is paid in interest-free installments, with all dues payments applied to your life membership account.
- You can also apply online for as little as $10 with a recurring monthly credit card payment at dav.org/membership/join-dav.
- Life membership payments are non-refundable and are not tax deductible.
No payment is collected through this website. Payment is handled in person at a chapter meeting or securely through DAV National at dav.org.
