April Impact: jobs, scholarships, Pop-Tarts and more

The American Legion weighed in on legislation, awarded scholarships, delivered support for VA-using veterans in Phoenix and helped those who have served find employment during the month of April 2024.

It was a big month for social media and the Tango Alpha Lima podcast, with the biggest jump in Instagram response since National Headquarters launched the platform some years ago. The podcast episode with Air Force combat veteran Israel de Toro, an adaptive sports athlete and inspiration to many, drew the highest number of downloads of any episode this calendar year.

And in Children & Youth Month, the Legion awarded hundreds of thousands in scholarships and grants, adding to the more than $60 million distributed for young people through the decades.
