The war on terrorism has affected every city, town and neighborhood across America.  Today, more then ever before, our friends, neighbors and relatives are being called to war as members of the National Guard and Reserves.

Families left at home while their loved ones are deployed often have to cope with household repairs and other emergencies that can become overwhelming, especially when their family member is away.

Legionnaires and members of The American Legion Family have “been there… done that.”   We know the emotional pain, worry and loneliness caused by wartime deployments.  We know the trauma of war firsthand, and the difficulties associated with keeping the home fires burning in our absence.

Since 1919, The American Legion has been committed to helping military veterans and their families.

Families of deployed service personnel that need help can call their local American Legion Post or the National Hotline @ 1-800 504-4098.
