Who Are We?

Since 1919, the American Legion Auxiliary members have selflessly served to help veterans and their communities, promoting Service not Self.  Each member recites the Preamble at each meeting to renew their pledge to service. 

As a member of the American Legion Auxiliary, you have the opportunity and the means to show your gratitude to the veterans who served our Country and their families in their time of need.  Many United States veterans paid a very high price to retain the freedoms that we take for granted.  The American Legion Auxiliary makes sure that they are remembered.

The Auxiliary not only supports members of the American Legion, it is also a major source of volunteers working on behalf of veterans residing in Veterans Administration hospitals.

Auxiliary members also contribute a great deal of time, effort and money to programs to help our veterans, our community and especially children. The feeling of satisfaction you receive from helping someone else cannot be measured.

While contributing to your community and its veterans is the main reason that the American Legion Auxiliary exists, there are also practical benefits that you receive as a member.
