Historical information

This was an invitation to celebrate 25 years of the founding of the Footscray-Sunshine branch of Melbourne Legacy. This branch was formed due to the increase in the number of widows and children in need of assistance from Legacy. The first branch formed in the area was the Williamstown/Werribee branch in 1956. Refer item 001086. Inside the front page is a list of foundation members, page 2 sets out the evenings programme and the last page lists the Past Chairmen.

Significance
