American Legion

The American Legion, chartered by Congress in 1919, is the largest veterans service organization in the United States, dedicated to serving the approximately 2 million veterans in California. The organization, along with its affiliated groups, promotes patriotism, national security, and communal support for youth and active-duty military members. With a strong commitment to its four pillars—Americanism, Children & Youth, National Security, and Veterans Affairs—the American Legion engages in various initiatives to strengthen the community and honor service members. Their programs also include recreational activities, such as the American Legion Gaming, which fosters camaraderie among veterans through gaming events and giveaways. Generated from the website
