Welcome to the American Legion Auxiliary Department of Missouri website.  I hope you find the information here informative and helpful. 

I am honored to be your President this year.  By Honoring Their Sacrifices through Service to Others we are recognizing the sacrifices made by our Nations POW/MIA’s and their families.  We have over 73,000 service men and women still unaccounted for. Please take a moment at your meetings to remember the families of these men and women. 

There is currently one known POW from Afghanistan.  Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl  (US Army) was captured June 30, 2009.  Please keep him and his family in your prayers.  For more information: www.supportbowe.org  or www.facebook.com/supportbowe

My Project this year is Camp Hope.  They do great work for our wounded veterans. Please take the time to look at the ChrisNealFarm website shown elsewhere on this page. 

I hope you have a great year and that we are able to serve more of our veterans, military and their families here in the great “show-me” state of Missouri.

Yours in service,

President's Project 2012-2013:
Camp Hope

Started in 2007 by Gold Star Parents William and Galia White, Camp Hope is dedicated to honoring the fallen by helping the wounded. Camp Hope offers free outdoor adventures to wounded veterans of the war on terror and active-duty combat-wounded military members. At Camp Hope, wounded warriors can shoot skeet, hunt turkey and deer, fish, hike, explore the country or relax around the fire without focusing on what they “can’t do.” Camp Hope operates out of the 170-acre Chris Neal Farm located about 70 miles southeast of Lambert-St Louis Airport and welcomes both men and women.

For more information about Camp Hope please visit: www.chrisnealfarm.com
