The mission of The Royal Canadian Legion is to serve veterans and their dependants, to promote Remembrance, and to act in the service of Canada and its communities. With that in mind, Royal Canadian Legion Branch 614 are longstanding donors to The Scarborough Hospital Foundation. Every year, two weeks before Remembrance Day, November 11, The Royal Canadian Legion conducts its annual Poppy & Remembrance Campaign. Legion members, volunteers and army, navy and air cadets campaign for donations, and proceeds help support the purchase of medical equipment at The Scarborough Hospital. Special thanks to Wayne Hayes, President; Ray Cameron, Vice President; Stuart East, 2nd Vice President; and Chin Tam, Public Relations Co-Chairman for dropping off a cheque for $8,000. |
