Net proceeds will be donated to the American Legion Legacy Scholarship Fund. This fund helps with college expenses for dependents of military personnel who died or became 50% disabled while on active duty after 9/11/2001.

The American Legion Legacy Scholarship is a needs-based scholarship designed to fulfill a financial gap remaining after all federal and state educational grants/scholarships available to an eligible applicant have been utilized.

Children of U.S. military members who died while on active duty on or after Sept. 11, 2001 are eligible. Children of post 9/11 Veterans having been assigned a combined disability rating of 50% or greater by the Department of Veterans Affairs also qualify.

This is a needs-based scholarship that provides up to $20,000 in aid for an undergraduate or post-graduate college. Recipients may reapply for additional annual awards up to six times.
