The ACF did astonishing work and was mainly organised and run by women on a voluntary-basis. | The ACF was formed from a number of Australian State-based patriotic organisations that had been individually formed at the beginning of the Great War. With the cessation of hostilities, the ACF officially ceased its fundraising operations on 16 April 1920, only to be reformed with the outbreak of the Second World War. | The layout of this Australian Badge Guide includes a full-colour image of each known badge, and relevant information for the collector with respect to technical details as well as known historical references to the particular badge and/or fundraising event.
