The Royal Winnipeg Rifles is an infantry regiment of the Canadian Army with over 135 years of service to Canada. Perpetuating its history and heritage is an essential element of regimental life. In 2015, the Foundation was formed to provide financial support for the preservation of the Regiment’s history, customs and heritage including historical uniforms, monuments, museum, band, historical events, Cadets representing the youth of Canada, and a scholarship program. It also supports like-minded organizations and provides emergency assistance to members of the Regimental family.
