Irene American Legion Auxiliary #193

The American Legion Auxiliary (ALA) is making our community a better place to live. We promote respect for our country and our national flag; we honor our veterans and active military and their families.

We are a group of volunteers who not only serve our veterans, active military and their families, we promote youth programs, educational programs, contests and scholarships in our local school. Each year we sponsor a delegate to Girls State. We supply local veterans with ‘Quilts of Valor’. We support our local nursing home by helping with entertainment like BINGO and parties. We support our community food pantry, ETS, and the AFTER-PROM party. We support the American Legion by providing food at the Memorial Day Program and the annual ‘Feather Party’. We support our local Veteran’s Hospital and their patients.

Those eligible to join the ALA are grandmothers, mothers, sisters, spouses (both female and male) and direct adopted daughters of all men or women who served in the military in either of the following periods, April 6, 1917, to November 11, 1918, or any time after December 7, 1941.

We are an active, visible group of women who love our country, appreciate or veterans and our active military. We always welcome new members.

Nancy Nielson is the President of our unit. She can be reached at 605-660-3132.
