Description
2023 Centenary of Legacy 100 Years of Service
Legacy is an iconic Australian charity dedicated to supporting the families of veterans who have given their life or health in operational service. Legacy supports the partners and children of veterans through assistance aimed at protecting individuals and families basic needs; advocating for their entitlements, rights and benefits; assisting families through bereavement; and helping people thrive despite grief, hardship and loss.
For 100 years, Legacy has been standing proudly as the only veteran service organisation in Australia dedicated solely to the care and support of our veterans’ families. Over 40 Legacy Clubs across Australia and one Club in London work to ensure families receive the support they deserve.
Legacy grew out of the ashes of World War One. In the trenches of the Western Front during World War I, a soldier said to his dying mate “I’ll look after the missus and kids”. This became known as The Promise – and it is still kept today.
