Legacy Week Press Release


Legacy Week Badge Appeal
28 August – 4 September 2011

The Legacy Week Appeal aims to build awareness about the importance of Legacy’s work in the community. The campaign also hopes to raise much needed funds to assist the services that Legacy provides to 115,000 families
of Australia’s deceased veterans.
Legacy is a unique Australian tradition which is born out of the trenches where a promise was made to a dying
mate that “someone would look after the missus and kids.” In 2009 Legacy is asking the Australian public to help Keep The Promise to the dependants of deceased veterans buy buying a Badge or making a donation during
Legacy Week.
Over 25,000 troops have been deployed overseas since 1999 and over 5,000 new widows of deceased veterans enrol with Legacy every year. We need the public’s assistance to ensure Legacy’s crucial services continue both
now and into the future.

Hamilton District Legacy needs your support. You can do so by buying a badge, donating or even volunteering to participate in the appeal by selling Legacy badges in your local community.”

The public has given wonderful support to the Appeal in the past and we hope that this will continue in 2011.
New Member for Hamilton and District Legacy.

On the 11th of July Legatee President David Dunn inducted John Frederick Graham
into Hamilton and District Legacy.
John is well known in the Hamilton and District for his charity work, involvement in Cycling, Football and many other activities.
John has been in the shadows of Hamilton Legacy in the way of Chairing the Junior Public Speaking for a number of years, so is not a total stranger to Legatees.
We welcome both Legatee John and his wife Ruth to the Legacy family and wish them a rewarding time in the club.
