**About the organisation**:
Legacy Club Services is a not-for-profit company limited by guarantee, that is dedicated to providing professional support to Legacy Clubs, Legatees, and the families of veterans who have given their life or health in service.

In 1923 Legacy made a promise to help veterans’ families carry on with their lives after the loss or injury of their loved one. Today, Legacy supports 40,000 partners and children of veterans who gave their lives or health serving our country. Our work can mean a child gets an education and a fair go, a widow is not disadvantaged and alone and a family is not torn apart by the effects of post-traumatic stress or other psychological injuries.

Since the Legacy promise was made by a soldier to his dying mate in the trenches of WW1 to “look after the missus and the kids”, Legacy has supported Australian Defence Force families in times of great need.
