The Ladies of the Grand Army of the Republic remains an active organization. It is a Congressionally Chartered non-profit organization, and is the oldest women’s hereditary organization in the United States. The original objectives of the organization included promotion of patriotism and loyalty to the Union, and participation in community service, especially for the aid of our Veterans and their dependents. Current objectives remain the same.  [jet]  [ph:L]
