Legacy cares for the families of Australian Defence Force men and women who have lost their lives or their health as a result of their service.
Legacy supports the partners and children of veterans who have seen their loved ones leave our shores to serve in wars from World War 1 and World War 2, to Korea, Vietnam, Afghanistan and Iraq. Many never made the journey home and others returned bearing the physical and mental scars of war.
Legacy also supports the families of those who may have died many years after serving our nation. All are equally deserving of our support for the sacrifices their families have made for their country.
Legacy offers programs and services aimed at providing social, financial and developmental support. Some of these services look different depending on the individual and their circumstances. Our work focuses on ensuring all needs are met as best as possible, providing for young families and children, ageing and vulnerable widows as well as dependants with a disability.
