Facts Regarding Existance of The Royal Canadian Legion Over All The Royal Canadian Legion’s advocacy efforts are rooted in history since the first Legion in 1926 and represent the collective voice of over 300,000 members from 1441 branches, as the most iconic cornerstone of any community; a place where people come to support their community, support their families, and support their VETERANS AND military – that place is a Legion branch. Founded by Veterans and for Veterans, the primary pillar of Legion activity is devoted to serving Canada’s Veterans The Legion is recognized as the Guardians of Remembrance in Canada. Through our programs and events, we assist Canadians in recognizing and paying tribute to those who have given the ultimate sacrifice in the Service of our Country and to those who continue to serve our Nation. The Legion’s mission statement represents the very foundation of everything the Legion strives to accomplish: Our mission is to serve Veterans, which includes serving military and RCMP members and their families; to promote Remembrance; and to serve our communities and our country. The Legion’s annual Poppy Campaign is a national event to ensure the sacrifices the men and women of this country have made are not forgotten. Remembrance is what we stand for. Did you know that there were 18 million poppies worn in 2012, which as a result, raised over $14 million to support all veterans and their families? •Volunteerism is what the Legion is all about. Legionnaires are one of the largest volunteer bases in the country and provide needed assistance to their communities. Over 4.3 million hours are committed by Legionnaires annually in volunteer activity totaling approximately $21.5 million. Annually, approximately $6.5 million is donated back into the community The Legion’s definition of Veteran is inclusive: we support all Veterans of all ages including serving Canadian Armed Forces members, Regular and Reserve, and RCMP members. There is only one Veteran in our eyes; a concept long recognized by the Legion. While the Legion delivers many programs to Veterans and their families to ensure a quality of life after release and ease the transition from service. •For many years, through Poppy Funds, we provide emergency housing, food, clothing etc. Last year the Royal Canadian Legion over all has established a national homeless Veterans program, “Leave the Streets Behind”, with an over $1 million commitment. The Legion is a registered not for profit organization funded solely by membership dues. It is not a government agency. It is a footprint of 1441 branches across Canada, the Legion is able to step up and ensure Veterans and their families receive the highest quality of service. The Legion has a national reach across this vast country and with branches in the United States, Europe and Mexico. Legion membership is open to all Canadians, almost 30% of our members are persons who have served. All other members are either the family of those who have served or are persons who support the Canadian Forces, RCMP and traditions of Remembrance. All Legion members recognize and uphold the value of service to country. Legion volunteers whether they have served or not raise funds and assist Veterans and their families and Post Secondary Education with Donations called Bursaries. . Without Legion volunteers the tremendous programs and services provided to our Veterans, Youth, Seniors and their families in communities across this country would disappear. In Conclusion: Founded 87 years ago, the Legion is Canada’s largest Veteran and community service organization. Legionnaires are proud of their accomplishments and their service to our Veterans, Seniors, Youth and our communities. Our record of accomplishments is long but our service is still needed. The Legion will continue to be there for our Veterans and our communities for many years to come. Thank you for your time and interest in supporting our Royal Canadian Gravenhurst Harry Wray Br 302 Legion and its 75th Birthday all ages community Event. Warmest Regards in Good Comradeship, Deb Draper RCL Br 302 and Zone E5 PRO
