Australian War Memorial

[aussie]

Whilst at the Australian War Memorial I picked up a brochure and thought I would share it with you here in case you need to get in touch with them for whatever reason. Details as follows:

The Australian War Memorial commemorates the sacrifice of Australian men and women who have served in war. Each year almost one million people visit the Memorial to view our exhibitions and learn how Australians have been touched by war.

Our award-winning galleries contain relics, works of art, photographs, and personal items that help us to tell the extraordinary stories of ordinary Australians.

You can help to support the Memorial in two ways: either by

• Joining the Friends of the Memorial Membership Program or
• By contributiing to the Memorial's Donor Program

Your generous support will help people to remember, understand and appreciate the Australian experience of war.
