Boomer's Legacy

Raise money for Boomer's Legacy

Military Personnel Command / Chief Military Personnel (MPC/CMP) is the personnel management and supporting arm of the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF). As such, they are actively engaged in medical services at home and on operations, show support to military families, and care for the ill and injured. For this reason, the public are invited to contribute to and support Boomer’s Legacy as the chosen charity for the Victory March 2021.  

The goal of Boomer’s Legacy is to empower Canadian Armed Forces soldiers, sailors, aviators and airwomen by raising and providing charitable funds, thus helping them to help others. The intent behind Boomer’s Legacy was born out of the everyday actions taken by Corporal Andrew “Boomer” Eykelenboom. Cpl Andrew Eykelenboom, a dedicated soldier and a Canadian Armed Forces medic, was killed by a vehicle borne IED on August 11, 2006. 

Throughout Andrew’s service he was committed to saving lives and helping the Afghan people realize freedom. His death was the catalyst to creating Boomer’s Legacy to help men and women in uniform make a positive difference in the lives of others. Andrew’s humanitarian spirit lives on through Boomer’s Legacy, committed to “Helping our Troops Help Others at home and abroad”. 

Boomer’s Legacy fund humanitarian initiatives with the goal of building local capacity to provide a lasting impact. Projects vary from helping a family, a school, a hospital or an area, to providing opportunities for women and veterans, and improving health care or education conditions.

Boomer’s Legacy raises awareness of our military’s efforts on deployed operations at home and around the globe and raise funds for Boomer’s Legacy- funds our soldiers can access to further help the people in communities where they serve.
