AMERICAN LEGION AUXILIARY
Hello ladies and friends,
American Legion Auxiliary Unit 3 is partnering with Don & Millie's (at both locations, 56th & Nebraska Parkway and 81st and O Street), with an ongoing fundraiser. Every 3rd Sunday, from 11am-9pm. Just tell the cashier that you are supporting Legion Auxiliary Unit 3 when you dine in or drive through. Don & Millie's will donate 20% of your order to the Auxiliary. You eat there anyway (you know you do, admit it), so why not support a worthy cause while you're at it!
Please add a reminder on your calendar for April 10, 2026, as we hold a fantastic fundraising project featuring America's Got Talent star Joseph Hall for an Elvis Tribute Show. More details below, and to follow.
As a reminder, if you have not already done so, please pay your 2026 membership dues.
For God and Country,
Lori Gubser
President, Unit 3
