Since the 1920s, The American Legion has stood by communities, Legionnaires and Legion posts after disasters like hurricanes, tornadoes and wildfires.
Established after Hurricane Hugo in 1989, the National Emergency Fund has delivered over $11 million in aid to Legionnaires and Legion posts, helping prevent post closures and support recovery. With grants of up to $3,000 for individuals and $10,000 for posts, the NEF ensures rapid relief when it’s needed most.
