Help Save our Historic 100 Year Old American Legion Post

For the past 100 years, our post has been a cornerstone of the Riverside community. It's been a place where generations have gathered, celebrated milestones, and supported one another. It's more than just a building; it's a living piece of our shared history and the heart of our community spirit. But today, our beloved American Legion Post 289 is in critical danger. We are facing an unprecedented crisis with failing essential equipment and an urgent tax debt that threatens our very existence. The weight of this challenge is immense, and frankly, we cannot face it alone. We need your help to keep our doors open for the next century.

The Immediate Need

We are seeking to raise $200,000 to address these critical issues outlined below:

Essential Equipment that is in need of Repairs/Replacement

Roof Replacement/Repair

Cooler / Walk -in refrigeration unit

Heating unit

Energy efficient kitchen refrigerators and freezers

Failing floor - needs immediate replacement to ensure the building is safe and operational.

Settlement of Past-Due Taxes: We are working diligently to resolve an outstanding tax liability. Clearing this debt is vital to maintaining our legal status and securing our future in the community.

Any amount will help, all donations will only be used for the problems as stated. Without these funds, we risk permanent closure, erasing a century of memories and leaving a void in our community that can never be filled.

Please act now to save our post. Your generosity today ensures our legacy tomorrow.

We appreciate your consideration of our request and thank you in advance for your

contribution. Together, we can ensure our historic post continues to serve Riverside, Ca for another 100 years.
