BLUE STAR MOTHERS

Our mission is to provide emotional support to our members in times of uncertainty, to support our military sons and daughters, our troops, our veterans, and our Gold Star families... We hold monthly meetings at the Joseph E. Zaloga American Legion Post 1520 in Colonie. In addition to business meetings, we make time to chat and exchange news of our military children. We offer an opportunity to provide emotional support to each other in a way that a non-military Mom might find hard to understand. We draw on each others' strengths and knowledge. Many of our members have sons and daughters that are serving or have served in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom or Operation Enduring Freedom in Afghanistan. We also have a growing membership of moms of veterans enabling us to focus on veterans needs as well. Among our numbers, we count 11 two-star moms!!... We are a 501(c)3 Congressionally chartered veterans service organization and are strictly non-political and non-partisan.
