Do you appreciate our veterans and active duty military?
Would you like to assist our veterans, active duty military and their families?
Do you get a lump in your throat when you see a waving flag or you hear our National Anthem?
If you answered "yes" to any or all of these questions, you may want to join our American Legion Auxiliary Unit # 417!
We are proud to be members and here's why! The American Legion Auxiliary has a long and proud history. During WWI nearly every man serving and enduring the hardships of war, had a woman serving at home to help insure an American Victory--his wife, mother, sister, daughter, or granddaughter. When the war was won, the men and women who served banded together in the American Legion to serve their country in peacetime. As a result, the American Legion Auxiliary was formed and is the largest and most influential woman's organization of its kind in the world today.
In the center of our emblem is the blue star, an emblem of service in war and is no less the emblem of service in times of peace. One of the main purposes of our auxiliary is to care for and assist our veterans. Our unit holds bimonthly coffee hours and several bingo games for our veterans at Menlo Park Veterans Home. These events also provide an opportunity for members to interact, converse, and provide some companionship for our veterans. We also visit and provide monetary birthday and holiday gifts to the residents. It is also our mission to instill a sense of patriotism in our youth through activities such as making cards for our veterans and active duty military. By interacting with the youth of our community, our actions enables them to become familiar with proper flag etiquette and an appreciation of those who served and are serving our country.
Service to our community is also provided when needed or requested. Of course, we hold our Poppy Drive yearly when we distribute those little red Poppies that mean so much to so many.
We are proud to be committed to our four founding principles: Justice, Freedom, Democracy and Loyalty, as well as service to God, our country, its veterans and their families.
Our Auxiliary NEEDS YOU!
We need women related to our younger veterans to provide us with a new insight into the problems and issues facing these young veterans and their families.
We NEED YOU to help us meet our responsibilities to our older veterans.
We NEED YOU to help us instill a sense of patriotism in our children and youth.
We NEED YOU to to join us for fun, friendship and camaraderie!
Join us at a meeting the third Monday of each month at 7:30PM.
We'd love to meet you!
Karen Neary, Auxiliary President
