Our Branch 351 Members are men and women, the young and not-so-young. They all have one thing in common. They care! They care about Canada’s Veterans, seniors, and youth, and they care about each other.
The Legion would love to welcome YOU, so why not drop in to our Branch and see what it’s all about?
About Legion Membership
The Royal Canadian Legion needs you. There are over four hundred (400) branches throughout Ontario with a total membership of over 140,000. In fact, the Legion’s Ontario Command is the largest service-oriented organization in the province! We are a Veterans’ community-based, not-for-profit organization, self-funded by its members.
The Legion was founded by Veterans for Veterans. We continue to uphold our traditional values of remembering those who gave their lives for freedom. Additionally, we look after the needs of Veterans, their dependants, and those still serving in the Canadian Forces.
Legions throughout Ontario Command also contribute to the well-being of neighbours by sponsoring local community programs. Supporting the communities in which we live is one of our main objectives.
Imagine membership in an organization that truly makes a difference. We bring people together through sports and social events, support seniors and youth, contribute generously to local charities, and proudly honour Canada’s Veterans.
Does this sound like something you’d like to be part of? Join today!
