Enerquip has donated $3,000 to the Medford VFW Post 5729’s building fund to support the construction of a new clubhouse. This donation reflects Enerquip’s dedication to enriching the communities it proudly calls home.

The new facility will serve as a hub for veterans to connect, support one another, and host community events. Fundraising for the project began in December 2023 and, as of December 2024, is approaching the 50% mark. This progress is the result of collective efforts from local businesses, organizations, youth groups, the American Legion, VFW, and VFW Auxiliary.

Jeff Hein, a fundraising campaign organizer, expressed gratitude for Enerquip’s support. “Enerquip’s donation brings us one step closer to our goal of breaking ground this spring and opening the doors by Veterans Day 2025,” he said.

Enerquip’s impact is further amplified by a matching grant from the Fulcrum Foundation, which doubles all donations made between October 1, 2024, and May 17, 2025, up to $400,000. This grant increases the value of Enerquip’s contribution to $6,000, accelerating the project’s progress.

“We are proud to partner with the VFW and support the incredible work they are doing for our veterans,” said Jeannie Deml, Enerquip’s President & CEO. “It’s an honor to help fund a project that will provide a gathering space for veterans to connect, share stories, and continue serving our community.”

Enerquip invites the community to join in supporting this vital initiative. For information on how to donate or get involved in the Medford VFW Post 5729’s new building project, call (715) 965-2331.
