Mission and Program Overview

Mission

The purpose of the American Legion is to serve the needs of Veterans of all wars, their widows, and dependent children. The American Legion in Cheverly Maryland continued to help our Veterans and the youth of our area. We sponsor the Boy Scouts and the Cub Scouts and allow them to use our building free of charge. We also work with numerous civic organizations to make our community stronger and more patriotic. We contributed to the local church Saint Ambrose and sponsored boys to the American Legion's Boy's State in Maryland.

For GOD and Country, we associate ourselves together for the following purposes: to uphold and defend the constitution of the United States of America; to maintain law and order; to foster and perpetuate a one-hundred per cent Americanism; to preserve the memories and incidents of our association in the Great Wars; to inculcate a sense of individual obligation to the community, state and nation; to combat the autocracy of both the classes and the masses; to make right the matter of might; to promote peace and good will on earth; to safeguard and transmit to posterity the principles of justice, freedom and democracy; to consecrate and sanctify our comradeship by devotion to mutual helpfulness.

IRS990/MissionDesc0The purpose of the American Legion is to serve the needs of Veterans of all wars, their widows, and dependent children. The American Legion in Cheverly Maryland continued to help our Veterans and the youth of our area. We sponsor the Boy Scouts and the Cub Scouts and allow them to use our building free of charge. We also work with numerous civic organizations to make our community stronger and more patriotic. We contributed to the local church Saint Ambrose, sponsored the local boys and girls sports club, and sponsored boys to the American Legion's Boy's State in Maryland.
