Legion Vimeo Channel houses promotional videos, PSAs

The American Legion has an abundance of promotional videos and public service announcements (PSAs) that help tell the Legion's story, as well as aid in membership recruiting, fundraising efforts, support for programs and events, and more. And it's all easily accessible on The American Legion's Vimeo Channel at https://vimeo.com/americanlegion.

The PSAs and videos housed on the Legion's Vimeo Channel can be shared via mobile devices or downloaded onto a computer hard drive and shared without the need for Internet connection. They too can be shared with media outlets and movie cinemas to promote what the Legion does locally and nationally.

Example of videos on the Vimeo Channel include a Membership Moment series on how to welcome and engage new members, recruit members, and re-engage expired members; "This is The American Legion," which gives a general overview of the Legion and its service to veterans, their families and communities; and overview of the four pillars. These videos can be played during meetings at the post or events to recruit new members.

And several of the PSAs feature National Commander Denise H. Rohan. Those PSAs focus on membership recruitment, preparing for the Legion's centennial, hosting job fairs, and Legion programs such as the National Emergency Fund and Temporary Financial Assistance. She too has a Veterans Day message that can be shared during posts dinners with their community.

"To enhance our communication awareness and tell the great story of The American Legion family, we offer these promotional tools," Rohan said. "It is essential that we remind veterans and their families about the programs and resources available to them through the nation's largest veterans organization."
