AMVETS (American Veterans) is one of the nation’s leading veterans service organizations, dedicated to representing and assisting all honorably discharged veterans and active-duty service members. Established in 1944, AMVETS has a proud history of fighting for veterans’ rights, supporting military families, and giving back to communities across the country.
Our members come from every branch of the Armed Forces and every era of service — from World War II to today’s military. Together, we advocate for veterans’ benefits, provide resources to help with the transition back to civilian life, and create opportunities for continued service through community outreach and volunteerism.
At AMVETS Post 45, we are more than just a veterans’ organization — we are a family. Our members host events, support charitable causes, and offer a welcoming space where veterans can connect, share experiences, and find camaraderie. Whether it’s mentoring younger veterans, assisting those in need, or honoring the memory of those who served, AMVETS stands united in service and patriotism.
