• To SUPPORT Service Members, at home and abroad, by sending care packages and letters of encouragement, providing Pocket Constitutions for the Dallas Military Entrance Processing Station (MEPS) and Graduation stoles for newly enlisted High School Seniors

• To SERVE at area VA hospitals by donating our time and goods, participating in local Veteran events and partnering with like-minded Veteran support organizations such as the VFW and American Legion

About Us

BLUE STAR MOTHERS OF AMERICA, INC.

On January 22, 1942 the Flint News Advertiser printed a coupon asking Mothers of serviceman to return it to the newspaper. After receiving 1,000 responses from the coupon ad, it was decided to form a permanent organization. The following February 1st, 300 mothers met in the Durant Hotel, in Flint Michigan. Captain George H. Maines, who had conceived the idea for this group, acted as the Chair of this first meeting. 

On February 6th the organization was reported on Congressional record. Chapters then formed in Michigan, Ohio, Wisconsin, New York, Pennsylvania, Oregon, California, Iowa and Washington. In June of 1960 the organization was chartered by Congress.

Blue Star Mothers of America, Inc. is now comprised of nearly 200 Chapters and 6,000 Members nationwide.
