THE POPPY | 12 Kasım 2020
İçinde 99 İngiliz Kraliyet Lejyonu kurulduğundan bu yana yıllar, Silahlı Kuvvetler topluluğunu desteklemek için verdiğimiz mücadeleden asla vazgeçmedik. Hizmet edenlere bakılmasını sağladık, ne tür zorluklarla karşılaşırlarsa karşılaşsınlar.
Ancak COVID-19'un mücadelesi zorlu oldu. bu 2020 Poppy Appeal, Poppy Appeal tarihinde ilk kez gönüllülerimizin İngiltere ve Galler'de yüz yüze koleksiyon gerçekleştiremediğine işaret ediyor. Hayır kurumunun tarihinde daha önce hiç, even throughout the Second World War, have all face to face collections been cancelled.
So today, as we bring our Poppy Appeal to a close, I would like to thank each and every one of you for getting involved in this year’s Appeal, whether you donated, displayed a Poppy in your window, signed up to Poppies in the Post, bought a poppy, did a virtual Poppy Run, fundraised for the Legion or showed your support in some other way.
It was both inspiring and moving to see so many people participating in different creative ways to pay tribute to the men and women who have fought – and fallen – over the years. Whether you created your own Remembrance event, took part in the two minutes silence on your door step, or simply wore your poppy as a symbol of your support, you were part of something truly special, and all of us at the Legion are so grateful to you.
We’ve created a short message for you İşte to say thank you for helping us make every poppy count this year. I hope you will take a few moments to take a look.
With very kind regards,
Simon O’Leary
Assistant Director of Fundraising, Poppy Appeal
