The Cozad Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 890 exists to foster camaraderie among U.S. veterans of overseas conflicts, to serve veterans, the military, and our community, and to advocate on behalf of all who have served. Together with the VFW Auxiliary, we proudly organize events, provide scholarships, and honor those who sacrificed for our freedom.


How We Serve Our Community

Cozad VFW Post 890 is deeply active in both veteran and community life through:

  • Honoring Veterans: Cards and recognition at local nursing/assisted living facilities, the Memorial Day Ceremony, Veterans Day Program, and Honor Guard services.

  • Flags of Remembrance: Maintaining the Avenue of Flags at Memorial Park, caring for over 300 memorial flags, flying 30+ flags at the Post on patriotic holidays, and preserving the Bricks of Honor and Monument at Memorial Park.

  • Youth & Education: Hosting the Voice of Democracy and Patriot’s Pen essay programs, awarding scholarships in partnership with the American Legion, and presenting the Teacher of the Year Award.

  • Community Engagement: Speaking at Cozad Schools, renting our Post Hall for family and community events, and supporting families during funerals, graduations, reunions, and weddings.

  • Emergency Relief: Maintaining a fund to assist area veterans facing unexpected hardship.
