From National Lifetime VFP member, Kate Beckwith:
Hello All ~
I have served as Administrator for San Diego Veterans For Peace's page for the last 4 years and have thoroughly enjoyed posting about Chapter 91's many community projects and happenings. I've also enjoyed all of the Comments and insight so many of you have left on posts I've made here.
I have recently turned over the Fb Administration of this page to other SDVFP Chapter members, and trust they'll keep you informed and engaged going forward. Remember to always stay current, non-violent and committed to solidarity in SDVFP's ongoing efforts towards global peace and social justice.
Be well,

In Peace and Solidarity,
