Who We Serve

The pillars of the American Legion we strive to serve comprise Veterans Affairs & Rehabilitation, Americanism, Children and Youth, National Security & Foreign Relations, and Community Service.  American Legion Madera Post 131 is committed to serving and supporting veterans, youth and our community through its establishment of the “Who We Serve” committee.

The “Who We Serve” Committee is headed by the Legion Chaplain and meets periodically to review requests for donations and to make recommendations to the E-Board for final approval.
