Nationally: The membership of the American Legion Riders nationally, is a very diverse group, so are the programs that we are involved in. By allowing each American Legion Rider Chapter to give their members the ability to manage their program at the Post level, the program has been allowed to grow. Today there exist Legion Rider programs in several states, and many more starting. The types of things that these groups are doing are far too many to mention on this page, but here are a few examples: Participation in the annual POW/MIA Rally held each Memorial weekend in Washington D.C. known as "Rolling Thunder". Sponsoring or participating in local Charity events. Raising money for such organizations as local VA Hospitals, Battered Women and Children's Center, Varied Children and Youth programs, a School for Blind Children, Veterans Relief, Needy families and many, many others. Sponsoring or participating in motorcycle "Runs" to benefit numerous charities, including charities for underprivileged children and medical research, just to name a few. Participation in memorial ceremonies and community parades. One group is spearheading an effort to erect a "Veterans Memorial Park" in the center of their Downtown area. The recognition by local communities has marked the program as a true success. The American Legion Riders Group in Michigan was even honored by the Local City Council, when they drafted a resolution Declaring the American Legion Riders as a valuable asset to the community. Motorcyclist can be a very dedicated group of people. When you combine this with the fact that they are legionnaires, you create a win/win situation.
Job's Daughters International is an international organization that originated in the state of Nebraska in 1920. Mrs. Ethel T.
