Renew now, not later! 
 
Now is the time to reaffirm our commitment to the American Legion Auxiliary’s mission by renewing your membership. Remembering our why and the reason we joined the Legion Family can be a spark in renewing our membership and leaving a lasting impact.
 
Regardless of who your eligibility is through, your why is your motivation and purpose. When we renew our membership, we are honoring our veteran for whom we are eligible through and joined this organization for. Staying current and being proactive in renewing the 2025 membership is our purpose to the organization’s longevity, as well as supporting everyone to reach goals and to ensure the platform for membership is sustained for years to come.
 
Just think for a moment and imagine setting off a domino effect by being proactive in renewing ALL dues for the 2025 membership. A domino effect of motivated doers in renewing our 2025 membership dues would be astounding as we continue to make our foundation in memberships strong. To all the motivated doers, let’s be proactive in renewing sooner than later.
 
We must be intentional in everything we do. Be proud to be a part of this beautiful organization — whatever your reasons for joining and for that matter, reasons for staying — be intentional about your membership, and make a conscious effort to recognize and remember your why. Let’s be humbled in honoring our ancestry with their membership eligibility. We are the members in keeping the membership foundation strong. The American Legion Family needs your continued dedication and your why to keep this membership organization strong. Your membership is valuable; your voice is powerful and heard. Renew today!
 
Renewing is easy — the fastest way to renew your 2025 dues is by visiting www.ALAforVeterans.org. With a simple registration using your membership ID number, you can renew online, any time of the day, 24 hours. You may also reach out to our fantastic staff at ALA National Headquarters at (317) 569-4570, 8 a.m. – 4:30 p.m. ET; the Membership Division is standing by, waiting to assist. Let’s not forget about our Junior members — their current membership depends on you.
 
Renewing your membership goes well beyond all of the benefits — it’s the opportunity to say, “I am a proud member of the American Legion Auxiliary, and because of my veteran whom I am eligible through, I renew my commitment to this organization because of their sacrifice.” 
 
Let’s continue the growth and strength of this organization by renewing today, making it stronger than ever, and leaving a lasting impact for those coming behind us. Always remember your why, your purpose, remain steadfast, dedicated, and committed to the mission and the lasting impact will be the results.
