(We want) veterans to understand that we're open, we're here for them,
and if they need somewhere to come, this is almost like a safe house.

The American Legion Riders provide an avenue for attracting younger veterans. The feeling they get, to ride with the Riders, provides great therapy for them as they enjoy fellowship with the fellow veterans.

These were important things. It helped them not get behind in their rent...
It helped them put food in the refrigerator.
