WELCOME TO POST 5812 PUEBLO WEST

Teamwork ~ Leadership ~ Commitment
As veterans who once stood on the front lines, we invite today’s service members to join our ranks. Whether you served in the Persian Gulf, Korea, Kosovo, the War on Terror, or a global peace-keeping mission, our shared bond was forged on the battlefield. Your courage helped safeguard world peace—now, we invite you to continue that legacy of leadership through community service.
At VFW Post 5812 , we turn that mission into action. We don’t just remember the past through Memorial Day and Veterans Day services; we build the future. From fighting childhood cancer with our annual St. Baldrick’s event to providing Thanksgiving meals and toy drives for families in need, we remain dedicated to serving those around us.
Starting in May 2027, we are stepping up our impact by selecting a major project in the Pueblo West community as part of the VFW Days of Service. Real change requires veterans who are ready to lead. Join VFW Post 5812, bring your experience to the table, and help us be the solution our community needs.
 

DONATE TO POST 5812 PUEBLO WEST

Flash, Flash, Flash: Action Alert from National VFW. This could have a huge impact. Make your voices heard. 
 
Congress is considering legislation that would expand some veterans' programs by changing disability ratings for tinnitus and obstructive sleep apnea.
According to VA estimates, those changes could affect up to 1.5 million veterans and reduce disability compensation by approximately $57 billion over the next 10 years.
Veterans should not pay for veterans' benefits.
Take action today and tell Congress to Honor the Contract and protect earned disability compensation: https://votervoice.net/VFW/Campaigns/138035/Respond
