5.2 Assets Held in Trust

The following monies are not available for other purposes of the Memorial and are not recognised in the financial statements.

Note 5.2A: Florance Foundation Trust Fund - monetary asset

During 1979-80 an amount of $3,000 was provided by Mrs D Florance of Bowral, NSW, on condition that it is invested and the interest used to bring disadvantaged children to the Memorial. To this, the Memorial added $5,000, bringing the total of the Florance Foundation to $8,000. In 1985-86 the Australian War Memorial Fund paid a further $10,000 into the Florance Foundation so that sufficient interest is generated to ensure the purpose of the Florance Foundation can continue. The Florance Foundation's current financial position, which is reported on a cash basis, is as follows:

Non-monetary assets

The current policy is for the trust fund to contribute the interest earned on the account towards the costs of fares associated with the transportation of disadvantaged children to the Memorial, as part of Anzac Day commemorations. The Legacy Coordinating Council and the Memorial together meet the balance of the fares' cost.
