I'm an Official Legacy Centenary Torch Bearer
It’s an honour to be a Legacy Centenary Torch Bearer for Canberra Legacy raising funds for Legacy widows and children.
Over the last century thousands of service widows and their children have found support, a haven and friendship through Legacy, an organisation which is still in existence thanks mainly to volunteers who believe in helping bereaved families to achieve their goals.
Canberra Legacy was certainly there for me when my husband Peter, a Vietnam veteran, died suddenly three years ago. In 1964 Peter's father, a WW11 veteran and TPI pensioner, died young and Legacy was there for my husband's mother and younger sister. Legacy provided financial support so that his sister was able to complete high school and university.
When Peter retired from the Navy he joined Legacy, looking after a number of widows and taking on the responsibility of Junior Welfare, a committee that catered for the the well-being of children of deceased veterans, providing social opportunities and educational assistance. I was often co-opted into helping out at social and sporting events.
I am delighted and feel privileged to have been selected to carry the Legacy Torch in Canberra in August. My ambition is to raise at least $5000 during the year to help Legacy continue their wonderful work.
Please donate to the campaign to ensure the viability of an indispensable organisation.
