The
American Legion is a not-for-profit organization, and the world’s largest veterans’ organization. It was instrumental
in the creation of the Veterans Administration and is universally
recognized as the originator of the GI Bill of Rights. The American
Legion was chartered by Congress in 1919 as a patriotic, mutual-help,
war-time veterans organization. A community-service organization
which now numbers nearly 3 million members -- men and women --
in nearly 15,000 American Legion Posts worldwide. The Legionnaires
support Boy Scout activities, by bringing their service-learned
skills and experiences as veterans to bear, to help build character
and positive traits in "Young America." We provide
the community with a place to go for Sunday breakfast. We help
the community & school with scholarships and funds for their
projects.
Since 1917, Lions clubs have offered people the opportunity to
give something back to their communities. From involving members
in projects as local as cleaning up an area park or as far-reaching
as bringing sight to the world's blind, Lions clubs have always
embraced those committed to building a brighter future for their
community.
