American Legion Riders – Chapter 265

The American Legion Riders are a national program built on service, camaraderie, and community impact. Our chapters support The American Legion’s mission through supporting veterans and their families, mentoring youth, and strengthening communities nationwide.

Each year, Riders take that mission on the road through the American Legion Legacy Run, raising critical support for the Veterans & Children Foundation (VCF)—a foundation of hope that steps in when veteran and military families face unexpected hardship.

American Legion Riders chapters are well known for their charitable work, which has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for local children’s hospitals, schools, veterans homes and severely wounded servicemembers. And since 2006, Riders nationwide have participated in The American Legion Legacy Run, first raising money for scholarships for children of U.S. military personnel killed since Sept. 11, 2001, and now for the Veterans & Children Foundation, which funds American Legion service officer training and provides grants for at-risk minor children of Legionnaires and active-duty military.
