SAL donates $250K to Veterans & Children Foundation

The Sons of The American Legion approved a $250,000 donation to the Veterans & Children Foundation during the SAL’s 51st National Convention in Charlotte, N.C.

The donation from the SAL Reserve Fund met the guidelines set by a 2017 American Legion resolution that establishes a ceiling for the fund and calls for money in excess of that ceiling to be transferred “to an approved American Legion charity for America’s veterans or youth.”

“The Sons of The American Legion always strive to support our nation’s veterans and youth, and being able to provide this kind of support all at once to the Veterans & Children Foundation is something that every SAL member should be proud of,” said SAL National Commander Donald L. “JR” Hall, Jr.
