Page 3: About The Royal Canadian Legion

Join. Because You Can.Legion membership is open to all and shows that you remember and respect those who’ve served our nation. We are the largest veterans organization in the country — more than 320,000 strong. We not only promote Remembrance but we are the advocate for Canadian Forces and RCMP veterans and their families to ensure their quality of life is the best it can be. The Legion is one of Canada’s largest community service organizations supporting everything from amateur sport to meals on wheels. With your membership you show your support for Canada’s Veterans and strengthen communities across the country.

Join The Legion. Because you care. Because you can!

Remembrance. It’s What We Stand For

We know that every November you pin a poppy to your lapel and then – on the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month – take a moment to honour and remember those who served our country. For that we – and our veterans – thank you.

Did you know: There were 18 Million Poppies worn in 2012, which as a result, raised over $12 Million to support Veterans and their families.

Page 6: About The Royal Canadian Legion
Page 7: About The Royal Canadian Legion

Support. We Stand For Our Communities

Thanks to its 1,450 branches, 3,960 full- and part-time employees – and the generosity (in both funding and volunteer time) of its 320,000 members – the Legion is one of Canada’s largest community service organizations, supporting amateur sport, cadet and scout groups, new hospital equipment and non-profit housing in communities big and small, from coast to coast to coast.

Current programs include: $2.7 million in the form of bursaries and scholarships, $3.3 million for youth programs, $500,000 to the Legion National Track and Field Championships, $222 million for Seniors Housing and $6.5 million in support of local charities.

Did you know: The Legion does all this without a penny of government funding!

Page 8: About The Royal Canadian Legion
Page 9: About The Royal Canadian Legion

Service. We Stand For Veterans

The Legion assists veterans with disability claims, offers a hand up to veterans who are homeless or at risk of homelessness and provides bursaries to children, grandchildren and great grandchildren of veterans. And that is not all - the Legion also supports drop-in centres, funds meals on wheels and housing and care facilities for elderly and disabled veterans and their families. There are many ways the Legion gives and by joining you can give too.

Did you know: The Legion’s Troop Morale Fund alone raised over $800,000.

Legion Magazine.We Are Canadian History, We Are Canada Today

As a member of the Legion, you’re entitled to a fully paid-up subscription to Legion Magazine – a colourful award-winning, 6-times-a year publication dedicated to recalling and celebrating Canada’s proud military heritage – from the War of 1812 right through to the conflicts (and peace-keeping missions) our serving men and women are involved in right now.

Articles and columns by noted historians and journalists – tales of heroes and villains, of battles won and lost, of spies and counterspies, and of the challenges our armed forces face today – will make you more than ever aware of the debt we owe our veterans … and are a great way to pass that knowledge along to the next generation.

Did you know: Legion Magazine is a $37.50 value all by itself.
