American Legion Auxiliary National Headquarters sets opening date of new office

11/2672018 – INDIANAPOLIS – The American Legion Auxiliary (ALA) National Headquarters, based in Indianapolis, has set a date of Dec. 11 when business opens at its new office location at 3450 Founders Road, Indianapolis, IN 46268.

The ALA National Executive Committee in July 2017 approved the purchase of the building, the first time the organization has owned property in its nearly 100-year history.

With close proximity to major interstates, the new office location is 20 minutes from downtown Indianapolis and 30 minutes from the Indianapolis International Airport. The new building space is larger, allowing the ALA to host more of its meetings at National Headquarters.

Thursday, Dec. 6, will be the last day of business at National Headquarters’ Meridian Street location in Indianapolis. The office will be closed to the public on Friday, Dec. 7, when movers will transport all office materials to Founders Road, and on Monday, Dec. 10. Tour dates of the new location will be announced in future ALA national media.

All phone numbers and email addresses for ALA National Headquarters will remain the same.
