As Veterans Day approaches, we have an opportunity to come together as a community to honor and support the heroes who have selflessly served our nation. Their dedication, sacrifices, and unwavering commitment to our country deserve our deepest gratitude.
On Nov. 11, we encourage you to join the American Legion Auxiliary Foundation in paying tribute to our veterans. By making a gift to the ALA Foundation’s Veteran Projects Fund in honor of a servicemember in your life, you can show them their sacrifices are not forgotten and that our community stands by their side.
The Veteran Projects Fund gives ALA entities an opportunity to begin a new volunteer initiative or forge partnerships with organizations that provide services directly to veterans — like a transitional housing facility — and make a substantial impact in a positive way.
Veteran Projects Fund grants are awarded up to $10,000 to eligible ALA tax-exempt entities — units, districts/counties, and departments — for projects that meet a new, one-time need. These grants are only made possible because of your generous support.
Some examples of your donations at work:
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.
