For more than 60 years, we in AMVETS have taken to heart the credo
of service set forth by our organization’s founding fathers. In so doing,
we endeavor to provide our fellow veterans with the type of support
they truly deserve. This outreach effort takes many forms, from the
professional advice our service officers offer on earned veterans
benefits to our legislative efforts on Capitol Hill to the work done by our
hospital volunteers. Other AMVETS members involve themselves ina
range of initiatives aimed at contributing to the quality of life in their
local communities.

These two areas—veterans service and community service—drive the
commitment we have to make a difference in the lives of others. The
pages of this website provide more detailed information on each area,
as well as a wealth of information for veterans, their families and other
interested citizens. Please take a few minutes to review what makes
AMVETS the distinctive organization it is. Our aim of building for a
better America is an undertaking to which all can contribute. We invite
you to join us.
