Did you know we are now linked to receive donations via GoFundMe and you can receive a charitable tax receipt? Go Fund Me is linked to Pay Pal Giving Fund. We have been testing this approach and it works great! You can set up a giving platform fund raiser that benefits Legacy Place Society – save yourself the paperwork and administrative hassles.
Our Mission: Provide empathetic support that builds resiliency both individually and as a family to our community of first responders, veterans and military personnel.
Our Vision: That all first responder and military personnel have user friendly access to resources to build resiliency as an individual and or as a family.
Our Objectives:
1) Provide a confidential crisis response by telephone for First Responders and Military Personnel that facilitates connection to professional and peer support.
2) Provide confidential and safe accommodations to First Responders and Military Personnel (individually or as a family) for safety, security and access to professional support so that they can recover quickly from a broad range of serious difficulties.
3)Increase knowledge, networking and reduce stigma by organizing and facilitating mental health and suicide awareness conferences in the military and law enforcement communities.
