Strengthen Community
Our members and volunteers support local events, Veterans’ Home activities, youth programs and other community projects.
A Legacy Beginning in 1899
The Veterans of Foreign Wars traces its roots to veterans who organized more than a century ago to secure the care, benefits and recognition they had earned through service.
Veterans of the Spanish-American War and Philippine Insurrection began forming local organizations after returning home without adequate medical care or veterans’ pensions.
Organizations in Ohio, Colorado and Pennsylvania joined a growing national movement that became the Veterans of Foreign Wars of the United States.
The VFW helped advance veterans’ medical care, education benefits, the national cemetery system and recognition for service-connected illnesses.
More than 1.3 million VFW and Auxiliary members continue advocating for veterans, supporting military families and serving communities across America.
Our Commitment
We are committed to preserving comradeship, honoring military service, assisting veterans and their families, promoting patriotism and strengthening our community.Non Sibi Sed Patriae — Not for Self, but for Country
