American Legion

The American Legion, founded in 1919, serves as the nation's largest veterans service organization, advocating for the unique needs of veterans, servicemembers, and their families. With a commitment to destigmatizing mental health support and preventing veteran suicide, the organization empowers individuals to take action through programs, services, and grassroots advocacy.

In addition to advocating for veterans, the American Legion enriches local communities through youth programs like American Legion Baseball and educational initiatives that promote values such as sportsmanship and leadership. Their efforts have resulted in significant achievements, including record amounts of benefits secured for veterans and grants awarded to nonprofit organizations supporting youth facing challenges.
