Thank You Gold Star Post 191!

Today, at the 107th Department of Maryland American Legion Convention, the Gold Star Post 191 Legion Riders were honored to receive the 4th Place Top Donor Award for the entire state of Maryland in support of the Veterans and Children’s Foundation.

This incredible milestone was made possible through the strength and unity of our entire Legion Family—the Legionnaires, Legion Riders, Auxiliary, Sons of the American Legion, and every single Post 191 member who supported our mission. Whether you attended an event, purchased a raffle ticket, volunteered your time, or simply helped spread the word, thank you.

Because of your unwavering support, we proudly donated $12,950 to this vital foundation that helps veterans and their families during times of need.

But we’re not stopping here.

We’re already planning and working hard to make next year’s impact even bigger—and we need your continued support. Every event, every fundraiser, and every ticket sold makes a difference. We invite you to stand with us again this year as we ride, serve, and give back.

If you’re unfamiliar with the Veterans and Children’s Foundation, we encourage you to take a moment to learn about the life-changing work they do for veterans, military families, and children across the nation.
