Post 7262 Supports Empowering Programs
GREENVILLE – Greenville VFW Post 7262 Junior Vice Commander Don
Dietrich presented a check to Bob Robinson, program coordinator for
Empowering Darke County Youth. The donation will be used to help
support Empowering’s After School Program.
The presentation was made at the Coliseum at the Great Darke County
Fair. The Post had T-shirts, hats and other memorabilia supporting the
VFW efforts in the community. The VFW is a charitable organization that
focuses on veterans and their families, as well as supporting its

as the public.
“We would like to thank the VFW for joining us in our mission to give
children an opportunity to succeed academically,” Robinson said. “We
are beginning our third year in our After School Program; our second at
the Greenville Elementary and Intermediate School campus. We had a
waiting list last year; VFW Post 7262 is going to help us eliminate it
this year.”
