CHARITY DAY - IN AID OF

THE LEGACY CLUB OF CANBERRA

THURSDAY 29 SEPTEMBER 2016

Sponsors: BCA Certifiers and Elbit Systems

Legacy is a voluntary charitable organisation, principally of returned servicemen and women, which has been dedicated to the care of widows, children and adults with disabilities of deceased war veterans since the mid-1920s. Legacy’s care now includes the dependants of deceased veterans of peacekeeping operations and of Australian Defence Force personnel, both Regular and Reserve, killed on hazardous service or in training for war.

Legacy is greatly reliant on the generosity of the community to fund its activities with minimal assistance being provided by the Government. Service provided ranges from advice and counselling to practical assistance to those in need. The scope of Legacy’s Service includes accommodation, education, legal and general welfare advice and assistance.

Canberra Legacy has a large “family” of 1130 widows, 26 Junior Legatees and 19 dependant adults with disabilities who are looked after by 150 Legatees.
