With Sylvia Lawson stepping down as President of the Ladies Auxiliary, you can contact Joyce Catcher through the Legion for questions.
Hopefully, Covid will be under control soon so it won't be too long before elections can be conducted.
Sylvia Lawson has moved away and resigned as the President of the Ladies Auxiliary. Sylvia did a lot of volunteering at the legion as well as being part of the Colour Party. She would love to see the Ladies Auxiliary grow and add more members!
We thank Sylvia for her time and energy and hope she will visit the Legion when she and Stewart are in the area.
Members of the Ladies’ Auxiliary support the aims and objectives of The Royal Canadian Legion and their dedicated service enriches the programs and activities of the Branch.
During the 1914-1918 war years. as wounded veterans returned home, women were asked to help with their recovery by visiting hospitals, sending parcels to the hospitalized and to needy families. It was from these dedicated bands of women that The Royal Canadian Legion Ladies’ Auxiliary was started. Today, the Ladies’ Auxiliary is a vital and integral part of the work of the Legion. Major contributors to the day-to-day life of Legion Branches, Ladies’ Auxiliaries provide financial and volunteer support to Legion programs.
The Ladies’ Auxiliary (LA) is a non-profit organization operated separate from The Royal Canadian Legion, but together they thrive.
Any woman who is eligible for membership in the Legion may choose to become a member of the Ladies Auxiliary only, or a member of both organizations. The Ontario Command have 292 Auxiliaries with 13,731 members.
Through their many fund raising activities they assist the local Legion Branches, health facilities and programs, school activities, and Bursaries.
