In 1923 Legacy made a promise to help veterans’ families carry on with their lives after the loss or injury of their loved one.
It was a simple promise that Legacy keeps today; providing the same stability, guidance and assistance that a partner would normally provide to his or her family.
Today, Legacy supports 30,000 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.
The Returned and Services League of Australia New South Wales Branch (RSL NSW) was formed in 1917 and currently has over 30,000 members in 315 sub-Branches in communities across New South Wales.
