SUPPORT YOUR LEGION
A New Way to Support Your Legion
Branch 256 is introducing the $11.11 Remembrance Contribution — a voluntary giving program created right here by your Branch and recognized by BC/Yukon Command.
This initiative is about operational stewardship — ensuring Branch 256 remains strong, open, and able to serve veterans, members, and our community year-round.
Did you know?
- Less than $9 from your annual membership fee stays at the Branch
- Poppy Funds are separate and cannot be used for Branch operations
- Only 15% of gaming funds (meat draws, 50/50s) can be used for general expenses
- It costs about $20,000 each month to operate your Legion
The $11.11 amount reflects the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month, but this program does not replace the Poppy Campaign, which remains a vital and separate way we support veterans.
Donation options:
- Monthly – $11.11
- Quarterly – $33.33
- Biannually – $66.66
- Annually – $133.32
This is your Legion. If you’d like to learn more or take part, please contact the office or visit us Monday–Friday, 10am–2pm.
Thank you for supporting Branch 256.
