Directions

Homer American Legion Auxiliary The Homer ALA is all about doing for the Veterans, active military, the children and our community. We have fund raisers to keep our missions going.

Some of the things we do include the following: send several of the Heritage Jr. girls to Girls State, we offer a scholarship to a graduating senior, we donate to the grade school library and the Homer library. We assist in disaster relief (the tornado in Gifford) We have helped a family in crisis by purchasing milk for 2 school aged children for the school year. The money we receive from the poppy distribution is spend ONLY on our veterans. We purchase clothing, toiletries, snacks, art and craft supplies and this year we are sponsoring several veterans in a color burst run. We send coupons to some of the US bases over-seas. (total to date for last 2 years is $36,353.42) We volunteer at the Danville VA and assist therapist with bingo parties, help with the Christmas dinner for the homeless veterans, we wrapped about 700 pr of socks, hats and gloves and made about 500 Christmas bags to be distributed to the in-patients, homeless veterans and veterans in other programs. The list is non-stop. AND WE ENJOY EVERY MINUTE OF IT.
