AMERICAN LEGION - PA Post 0799
The American Legion, founded in 1919 by an Act of Congress following World War I, stands as the nation's largest veterans service organization, advocating tirelessly for the needs of veterans, service members, and military families. With a commitment to destigmatizing mental health support and combating veteran suicide, the organization empowers individuals to take action through programs like the USA250 Challenge in honor of America's 250th birthday.
Over the past century, the American Legion has positively impacted both veterans and local communities through a variety of programs and services, including youth development initiatives like American Legion Baseball and Boys State. By securing record amounts in VA disability benefits and providing grants through the Child Well-Being Foundation, the organization continues to strengthen America and inspire a spirit of service among its members.
