VFW Post 9914

The purpose of the VFW is to speed rehabilitation of the nation's disabled and needy veterans, assist veterans' widows and orphans and the dependents of needy or disabled veterans, and promote Americanism by means of education in patriotism and by constructive service to local communities.

Milford Historical Society

The Milford Historical Society was founded in 1973 by a group of citizens who recognized the importance of the heritage of their community and wished to share it with their contemporaries and preserve it for those who will follow. To these ends, the members have established a museum, a research and archives room, and have sponsored, in conjunction with the Milford Township Library and the State of Michigan Library, the microfilming of the Milford Times newspaper beginning with the first issue in 1871.  The Society’s continuing projects include an annual home tour, various research projects and an effort toward local architectural preservation. Through it’s own Sesquicentennial Committee, the Society published a book titled TEN MINUTES AHEAD OF THE REST OF THE WORLD – A History of Milford as another step towards preserving and disseminating the history of Milford, Michigan.

Our mission is to host a series of events open to everyone in the Huron Valley Community and the Metro Detroit Area. These events provide opportunities for coming together to celebrate the teachings and life of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. in a continuing effort to realize his dream as ours.

United Veterans of Michigan

UVM was founded in 2019 to help our national heroes enjoy the great outdoors. Since forming we have taken over 100 Veterans, Active Duty, Gold and Blue Star family members on fishing and hunting excursions at no expense to them.
