Veterans of Foreign Wars Post #3541 was started by the veterans of Sterling Colorado. They elected George Burk as the first Sterling VFW Commander in September 1936. The current Sterling VFW Commander is Michael Stevens.

Each hall of the Veterans of Foreign Wars is named after veterans who served in foreign combat. Each Post member votes to dedicate the hall to a local veteran upon receiving their charter. Sterling VFW Post is called Jake Uhrig VFW Post #3541. It was dedicated September 8th 1936, to Jake Uhrig, a Sterling Veteran who served in the United States Marine Corps in 1918.

Veterans of Foreign Wars mission is to foster camaraderie among United States veterans of oversees conflict. Veterans of Foreign Wars support veterans after their transition to civilian life. They offer scholarships for students, help veterans in need, advocate on behalf of all veterans and support their local town with any veterans’ requests. The VFW have conducted countless funeral services for local fallen heroes and presented military honors. The VFW conducts flag details, flag retirement and presentations. They have started a program to teach flag courtesy in the schools. The VFW donates to the local Resource Center and helps in the distribution of donated goods. They also donate time to teach flag courtesy in schools and rent their hall for public events.

The Auxiliary of Veterans of Foreign Wars Post #3541 in Sterling was established March 5, 1944 to support veterans, the community, and work with youth groups. They moved into 803 Phelps Street location in 2005. The building has been through various remodeling stages in the kitchen, stage, the bathrooms and landscaping.

In November, the Auxiliary conducts an annual Poppy Donation Drive and a Bean Feed for the community in November of each year. The money raised is used to help our local veterans in nursing homes, to assist the VA’s in Cheyenne, Denver VA and National Home. Locally, the Auxiliary has given gifts to Head Start for four years in a row and supports the Family Resource Center. This year they provided 200 Christmas Cards to local nursing homes, Head Start and Veterans.

You may contact the Veterans of Foreign Wars by calling 970-522-2153 or find them on Facebook at Sterling VFW Post 3541. You may call the Auxiliary Post at 303-827-4632. They are both located at 803 Phelps Street.
