BRANCH # 7 POPPY CAMPAIGN
Our campaign starts Friday October 28th to November 11. There will be boxes placed in our Branch, Businesses throughout our community and you will see canvassers at different business.
The Poppy is distributed freely to all who wish to wear one, we gratefully accept donations to the Poppy Fund. The donations collected during the Poppy Campaign are held in trust at our Branch to directly support Veterans and their families within our community.
We join the millions of Canadians wearing a Poppy as the pledge to honour Canada’s Veterans both past and current for the sacrifices made on our behalf for the freedoms we enjoy today.
The Poppy should be worn on the left breast, close to the heart. Poppies may be worn throughout the Remembrance period, including in the evening after Remembrance Day Ceremony. Some choose to remove their Poppy at the conclusion of our ceremony and place their Poppy on a wreath or at the Cenotaph, as a sign of respect.
We thank our community for supporting the Legion’s Poppy Campaign, honouring Canada’s Veterans.
