How are you Still Serving?

I know it's not the VFW but I started the American Legion Riders in my hometown. And we are 33 members strong. Myself and wife started a cancer fund in which as a group we raise funds for cancer patients in our community and we give them $100 no questions asked and veterans we give $200. Funds are yearly as long as they are still going through treatment. We also do a lot more in the community THE RIDERS ARE INVOLVED IN MANY COMMUNITY ACTIVITIES
