Grants and Contributions:
The issuance of a grant to the RCMP Veterans Association will underline and affirm the RCMP's support, commitment and appreciation for the countless hours these retired citizen volunteers dedicate in the promotion of the RCMP and the communities they support.
Funds will be used to help cover the costs of the RCMP Veterans' Association Annual General Meeting. There are 30 Divisions from coast to coast to coast with over 7000 members and associate members. The Divisions reach out to communities and engage in support in a variety worthwhile formats such as youth at risk, assisting the disadvantaged, supporting the ill and the homeless. They also work on behalf of Veterans by endeavoring to ensure their concerns and needs are articulated for the greater good and expressed in one, well-articulated voice to government.
