OUR GOALS

OUR MISSION

We are the nation’s largest wartime veterans service organization. Our members are committed to mentoring youth, sponsorship of wholesome programs in our communities, advocating patriotism and honor, promoting strong national security, and continued devotion to our fellow servicemembers, veterans, and their families. Yes... and having fun!

The American Legion was chartered and incorporated by Congress in 1919 as a patriotic veterans organization devoted to mutual helpfulness.  We are a nonpartisan, not-for-profit organization with great political influence perpetuated by our grass-roots involvement in the legislation process from local districts to Capitol Hill.

E PLURIBUS UNUM
