The American Legion, founded in 1919 by an Act of Congress after World War I, is the nation's largest veterans service organization, dedicated to advocating for the unique needs of every generation of veterans and servicemembers. Through programs that promote mental health support, youth development, and community service, the organization strives to empower individuals to take action in preventing veteran suicide and strengthening American communities.

With a commitment to providing resources such as training, scholarships, and exclusive member discounts, the American Legion has made significant impacts, including record amounts in VA disability benefits and grants for youth organizations. Their initiatives, like American Legion Baseball and Boys Nation, exemplify their dedication to instilling values of leadership and sportsmanship in the younger generation.
