American Legion Auxiliary (ALA) Department of Pennsylvania Convention was held at the Red Lion Hotel, Harrisburg July 25^th-27th. ALA members from throughout the state of Pennsylvania attended.

ALA Unit Members shared tons of information on their programs that they participated in for our Veterans, our troops, their families and our communities, in the “Spirit of Service not Self”!  In the “Spirit of Service, not Self”, the mission of the American Legion Auxiliary is to support The American Legion and honor the sacrifice of those who we serve by enhancing the lives of our Veterans, military and their families, both at home and abroad.  For God and Country, we advocate for Veterans, educate our citizens, mentor our youth and promote patriotism, good citizenship, peace and security!

Our American Legion Auxiliary (ALA) is known as the world’s largest patriotic service organization! ALA members are a community of volunteers serving Veterans, Military and their families!
