Fundraising Needs & Efforts
The not-for-profit Centre, named for Tony Stacey, the World War II Sergeant who with other veterans fought tirelessly to found the Centre, is located in Toronto and accepts veterans from across Canada. It is distinguished by the fact that it is the only veterans' long term care facility that accepts non-serving spouses of veterans, non-overseas veterans, veterans of conflicts post Korea and peacekeepers.
"The Tony Stacey Centre is a vital hub in the lives of veterans," said Jan DeVries, noting how essential it is to have a long term care facility where spouses are not separated simply by virtue of illness. "Canada has rallied to preserve our World War II history through the building of monuments, the stamping of coins and the saving of medals – all of which are important. The time has come to help the actual men and women who served our country. World War II Veterans need the Tony Stacey Centre – and so will those who have served our country since and who are serving now," he added.
