We Remember Society

 Welcome to the online home of the We Remember Society, a group of passionate people looking to create a poignant tribute to the indomitable spirit of Canadian War Veterans and their families, deeply rooted in the history of Cumberland County, Nova Scotia, and extending across the expanse of Atlantic Canada. We are a non-profit society, driven by dedicated volunteers, united by a shared mission: to honour, celebrate, and perpetuate the rich legacy of those who served our great nation, particularly within the diverse and resilient communities of Cumberland County and Atlantic Canada.

  At the core of our mission is a profound commitment to honouring the service of Canadian War Veterans within our own communities. We strive to acknowledge the sacrifices made by their families, ensuring that their tales of courage, resilience, and camaraderie of great men and women from diverse backgrounds find a lasting place in our collective memory.

One of our primary initiatives is the production of a compelling documentary film. Through the eloquence of letters, the intimacy of diaries, and the power of personal stories specific to Cumberland County and Atlantic Canada, we aim to weave a tapestry that reflects the untold narratives of wartime experiences within our local communities. This cinematic endeavour is not merely a retelling of history; it is a living testament to the strength of the human spirit in the face of adversity, across the landscapes of Cumberland County and the broader Atlantic region.

  To ensure that the legacy of Canadian War Veterans in Cumberland County and Atlantic Canada endures for generations to come, we plan to actively engage with local schools and communities. Through thoughtfully crafted media presentations and live performances, we bring history to life, fostering a deep understanding and appreciation for the sacrifices made by those who served in Cumberland County and throughout Atlantic Canada. Our aim is to bridge the generational gap, connecting the past with the present in a way that is both informative and profoundly moving, right here at home.

The We Remember Society is more than an organization; it's a community bound by a shared sense of duty to remember, encompassing the lives and stories from Cumberland County and throughout Atlantic Canada. Whether you're passionate about preserving local and regional history, have a flair for storytelling, or simply want to contribute to a cause greater than yourself within our communities, there's a place for you in our society. Your support ensures that the flame of remembrance continues to burn bright, echoing the lives and stories of heroes from Cumberland County and beyond.
