|
- the protection of individuals’ and families’ basic needs;

Sydney Legacy Helps Junior Legatees |
|
|
|
When a child loses a parent who has served on operational service they become part
of the Legacy family.
Spending time with other children who face similar outlooks forges strong bonds.
Sydney Legacy provides opportunities for Junior Legatees to attend camps throughout
the year with an emphasis on friendship, fun and challenges.
