The courage, endurance and sacrifice of the ANZACs in Gallipoli has left a powerful legacy, turning the 25th of April into a day of remembrance for years to come. Today, we honour the legacy of our ANZACs and acknowledge the continued sacrifices made by our contemporary veterans.
Australia’s contemporary veterans and their families face significant struggles throughout and following their service. This year, Soldier On honours our Nation’s service men and women and works to support the veteran community through our annual appeal in the lead up to ANZAC Day.

The ANZAC legend was born on 25 April 1915 when Australian and New Zealand soldiers landed on the shores of Gallipoli. Under relentless fire, the ANZACs embodied the themes of courage, endurance, mateship and sacrifice.
Australia’s contemporary veterans have continued to build on the ANZAC spirit, carrying these themes into modern service.
