Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. once said, 

"Life's most persistent and urgent question is: 

'What are you doing for others?"  

 SO ... WHAT ARE YOU DOING FOR OTHERS TODAY???

Are You  Eligible  to join the

American Legion Auxiliary?

What is the American Legion Auxiliary?    

The American Legion Auxiliary

is the largest patriotic 

volunteer service organization

in the world.

Affiliated with The American Legion,

the Auxiliary is a veterans' service organization

with members in nearly 10,000 American communities.

The organization sponsors volunteer programs 

on the national and local levels,

focusing on three major areas:   

veterans, young people and the community.

Auxiliary members believe in 

the ideals and principles

of America's founding fathers 

and pledge to foster patriotism, 

preserve and defend the US Constitution,

promote allegiance to God and Country,

and uphold the basic principles of 

freedom of religion, 

freedom of expression,

and freedom of choice.

The Auxiliary embodies the spirit of America 

that has prevailed through war and peace

and continues to stand firmly behind America today, 

just as it did when the organization was first founded.

The Auxiliary has conceived 

and implemented hundreds of programs

for veterans, their families, 

young people, and the community.

Many programs such as 

Girls State and Girls Nation 

have been expanded.

 creating commonly accepted institutions

within the community and nation. 

In addition, 

the Auxiliary works with organizations

such as

Children's Miracle Network, 

Fisher House 

and the Red Cross.

Auxiliary Volunteers 

are the backbone of assistance 

in over 170 VA Medical Centers.

The Auxiliary raises more 

than $18 million every year 

and reinvests these funds

in VA Medical Centers 

and additional community programs.

These volunteers 

provide diversion and entertainment for patients

and assist the hospital staff in 

physical and psychological therapy.

There are more than 20 programs 

Nationwide 

that receive support

and financial aid from the 

American Legion Auxiliary.

The Auxiliary is also a co-sponsor of 

The VA's

National Veterans Creative Arts Festival.

The services of the 

American Legion Auxiliary, 

directly and indirectly, 

touch the lives of all Americans.

With the philosophy of "Service, not Self,"

the American Legion Auxiliary 

develops a strong spirit 

of volunteerism in its members, 

who have joined together 

in the fellowship of giving to others.

American Legion Auxiliary Emblem

The emblem of the American Legion Auxiliary

is a badge of distinction and honor.

It stands for God and country,

and the highest rights of man.

It consists of several parts and each part has a meaning.

The rays of the sun that form the background

stand for the principles of the American Legion Auxiliary,

for 

Loyalty, Justice, Freedom and Democracy;

dispelling the darkness of violence, strife and evil.

In The Center...

The star of blue 

is 

the emblem of service in war;

it is No less 

the emblem 

of service in time of peace.

The emblem of the American Legion Auxiliary

Is...

the emblem of Americanism.

Americanism is unity of love,

singleness of allegiance,

practicality of purpose,

care of the distressed,

the education of children,

all directed to the promotion

of a common good.

Let us not forget

that to each generation comes its patriotic duty

and that upon your willingness 

to sacrifice and endure

as those before you have sacrificed and endured

rests the hope of a nation.
