Save Washington, LA Historic American Legion Hall

We are reaching out to you today to help raise funds for the much-needed repairs of our cherished American Legion Hall, a historical landmark in historic Washington LA. Since its establishment in 1920, this hall has served as a gathering place, a symbol of patriotism, and a testament to the valor and sacrifices made by our veterans. After years of dedicated community service, the veterans of the American Legion Jasper Neyland Post 209 were forced by Covid and an aging and dwindling membership to curtail many of their initiatives. Limited funds and resources lead to the deterioration of their historic home.

With new leadership, and a younger growing membership, there is a renewed enthusiastic dedication to performing their mission of recognizing and supporting veterans and the community. Throughout the years, this post has stood as a reminder of our commitment to honor and support those who have served our nation. Now, however, time and weather have taken their toll on this cherished building, resulting in damages that threaten its structural integrity and ability to serve our community. With your generous contributions, we can restore this invaluable piece of history, preserving it for future generations and ensuring that it continues to be a place where veterans, their families, and the wider community can come together to celebrate, remember, and support one another. Join us in safeguarding this historic gem and carry on the legacy of our brave heroes – every contribution counts!
