         Operation Veteran was founded in 2009 by Dr. Paul

        Museum, to honour and raise awareness of veterans         Or you can print and complete this donation

        the Museum can receive a coupon valued at $11, which
                                                                  Thank you.
        can be exchanged for refreshments or a meal in the
        Café, the Museum’s cafeteria. Since the creation
        of Operation Veteran, more than 15,000 complimentary
        meals have been provided to veterans at the Museum.
        Educating young people about Canada’s debt to
        veterans through better understanding of our history is
        a critical element of Operation Veteran. To that end,
        your donation will also support the Museum’s Supply
        Line program. Through Supply Line, teachers across
        Canada can arrange to borrow a First World War
        Discovery Box. Each box contains authentic and
        reproduction items such as barbed wire and steel
        helmets, as well as lesson plans and background
        documents for teachers. The boxes are intended to
        promote active classroom learning and discussion, and
        give students in Grades 4 to 12 a tangible way to
        imagine what life was like for Canadians during the First
        World War.

          By supporting Operation Veteran, you help us honour
             veterans, raise awareness of their sacrifices and
                   preserve Canada’s military history.
