OUR MISSION
In the spirit of Service, Not Self, the mission of the American Legion Auxiliary is to support The American Legion and to honor the sacrifice of those who serve by enhancing the lives of our veterans, military, and their families, both at home and abroad. For God and Country, we advocate for veterans, educate our citizens, mentor youth, and promote patriotism, good citizenship, peace and security.
OUR IMPACT
We are one of the nation’s most prominent supporters of veterans, military, and their families. We help to advance the mission of The American Legion.
