Support Our Mission
The American Legion was chartered and incorporated by Congress in 1919 as a patriotic veterans organization devoted to mutual helpfulness. It is the nation's largest wartime veterans service organization, committed to mentoring youth and sponsorship of wholesome programs in our communities, advocating patriotism and honor, promoting strong national security, and continued devotion to our fellow servicemembers and veterans.
The American Legion's success depends entirely on active membership, participation and volunteerism. The organization belongs to the people it serves and the communities in which it thrives.

Ways to Support
Helping Veterans
& Families
Part of the mission of the Scenic City Heroes is to help veterans and their families with unforeseen struggles. Whether it is food or clothing or other issues, we try to help ALL veterans in need.
Building Comradery
Building comradery is important to veterans. We are a close family as most of us have been since we served. We meet weekly in a judgement free zone, at the Post, to socialize (listen to music, watch TV, and play cards/dominoes). Buddy Checks are performed throughout the year to check on veterans and to ensure our veterans have the support they need.
Veteran Center
Food Drive
We participate in the Veteran Centers' Annuel Food Drive collecting, sorting, and preparing food boxes for distribution to veterans and their families in need at Christmas. We also have ongoing support for a local veteran that distributes food throughout the year to veterans in need.

Annual Bicycle Drive
We sponsor an annual bicycle drive where we collect new and gently used bicycles for distribution to other local non-profit organizations with children's programs and we also donate to local families in need.
