The American Legion Department of California issued a fundraising challenge to several other departments for the month of July. The challenge is centered on American Legion National Commander Bill Oxford’s 100 Miles for Hope Program, which was developed as a way to help inspire veterans and Legion members to become more physically active while also raising money for the Veterans & Children Foundation.

This event is open to the public. We encourage you to invite your friends, family and colleagues to join you in your pursuit to support The American Legion as you keep each other motivated to be healthy and active.
