Happy New Year!

As we reflect on the accomplishments of 2014, we look towards the future for 2015…

In November 2014 The American Legion, Department of Florida announced the launch of their newest program, PROJECT: VetRelief.  Within just two months, word has spread throughout the Legion Family via email, mail, and word of mouth.  Many of you have viewed the new website, watched our originally produced videos, heard a presentation, participated in training, or visited with the PROJECT: VetRelief team at Fall Conference or here at Department Headquarters.  THANK YOU all for your participation and interest!

We are excited to have covered a lot of ground in a short amount of time, but there is still so much work to do in 2015 and we NEED YOUR HELP to continue getting our message out there.  Here’s how you can assist:

With your help, PROJECT: VetRelief will be able to engage more volunteers, conduct community outreach, implement new programs, and, most importantly, provide much needed emergency assistance and benefits support to more and more of our service members and their families across the state.
