WHAT ARE POPPY TRUST FUNDS USED FOR?

The basic purpose and obligations of the Poppy Trust Fund are to assist Veterans as defined in the Legion’s General By-Laws and their families.

A Veteran is any person who is serving or who has honorably served in the Canadian Armed Forces, the Commonwealth or its wartime allies, or as a Regular Member of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, or as a Peace Officer in a Special Duty Area or on a Special Duty Operation, or who has served in the Merchant Navy or Ferry Command during wartime.

In this regard any use of Poppy Funds must focus on directly supporting Veterans and their families.

‘Families’ is defined as current or surviving spouse and dependant children
