National President’s Award for Excellence
All of our members work hard to further our mission, but once a year we highlight those departments and units that truly stand out as they serve our veterans, their families, and their communities. The American Legion Auxiliary presents the National President’s Award of Excellence at its national convention to one department and five units which represent the best of the best among our membership. Not only do they get a well-deserved pat on the back, but their stories inspire other departments and units to emulate their success.
