Emmalee Lax is raising money for Army Benevolent Fund
Story
I'm raising money for ABF The Soldiers' Charity who provide vital support to soldiers, veterans and their families in times of need.
For Soldiers. For Life.
ABF The Soldiers’ Charity was founded in 1944 as The Army Benevolent Fund. The demobilisation of soldiers after the two World Wars had put an enormous strain on Regimental and Corps charitable funds and highlighted the need for a national charity to give practical help to soldiers and veterans. Its first patron was His Majesty King George VI.
In January 2010, the charity rebranded as ABF The Soldiers’ Charity[2] and continues to support the Army family by giving grants to individuals and other specialist charities that help soldiers and their families. It works with veterans from every conflict since the Second World War, including those from recent operations in Iraq and Afghanistan.
