Veterans Voices of Canada Association hasn't added a story.
Do you know of a Veteran who should have had their story documented on camera? I myself have missed the opportunity to document Veterans in my family,to help them tell their stories of sacrifice on camera for my own family,as well as for Canadian historical archiving.
As one Second World War uncle said to me,"The boys need to have their stories told". I know many of our servicemen and women have historically important stories to be told,and they want the opportunity to tell those stories.
I believe our Veterans need to be thanked and interviewed personally, to meet them face to face...they deserve that. Therefore, I have been travelling Canada since 2005 to reach our Veterans, and to give them a voice, and to help them tell their historically important stories of service to Canada. Since then,over 1500 Veterans,young and old from the Second World War to Afghanistan have been documented. These compiled stories are donated to schools,museums and libraries, at their request.
Doing all of this comes at a cost. Daily costs of experienced manpower, administration, travel costs, accommodation and sometimes facility rentals make this callout necessary. With a budget of approximately 125,000 per years to run effectively, we ask for your help. Donate and become a part of collecting the stories of and saving our important Canadian history.
We also give honour and tribute to our heroes through historical displays and tributes across Canada throughout the year.
