Dear Patriots,
Welcome to the Chapter 700, Military
Order of the Purple Heart, United States of America, Website.
OUR
MISSION STATEMENT
We the membership of Chapter 700, Military Order of the
Purple Heart, are dedicated to honor and respect our veteran community, and to support our men and women of this great
nation, serving home and abroad. We'll stress the needs of our senior veterans with respect and kindness.
I am privileged to be the commander of Chapter 700.
Our members are very proud of our many accomplishments. We always look forward to our visits to senior veterans at local care
centers and rest homes. We also take part in national holiday ceremonies and parades in our area. We have the solemn
duty to place flowers on our deceased member’s graves, every year during the Memorial Holiday Weekend.
Our chapter has two main fundraisers. In the summer, during the Warren County Farmers
Fair, we will man our new Purple Heart trailer in the heart of the fairgrounds and during the Christmas Season,
we hold a fund drive in the Phillipsburg Mall. Please stop by and say hello if you see us at any of our events.
Our members also attend local school functions and ceremonies with veterans
or military themes. Our chapter, over the years, has placed three Purple Heart Memorials in our area: Belvidere, Flemington and
Phillipsburg, New Jersey. All memorials are dedicated to Purple Heart recipients, our nation's oldest military
decoration. If you are a Purple Heart recipient and would like to join our membership, please contact us.
Ron Adams
Commander, Chapter 700
