UAPB Veterans Memorial Project Volunteers
On Friday, May 4, 2018, the UAPB COA and the Golden Lion Battalion held a UAPB Veterans Memorial Site dedication to further the initiative to raise funds to construct the memorial on the UAPB campus. The memorial will serve as a functional community-gathering place to thank, honor, and celebrate the lives of all who participated in the UAPB Army ROTC Program and served in any of the five United States of America armed services. Additionally, the park will serve as a place of respect, of pride, of hope, and a demonstration of patriotism on the UAPB campus.
We need volunteers for our working groups to reach our goals. Specifically, we need volunteers for the following working groups to accomplish our mission and goals:
Design Working Group to provide the steps needed to organize and outline the physical design and construction of the Veterans Memorial.
Public Relation Work Group to increase public awareness and understanding of the mission of the Veterans Memorial Committee to design and build a veterans memorial to honor UAPB Army ROTC veterans and all veterans for their service during wars, conflicts and peacetime service.
Fund Raising Working Group to provide the necessary funding and resources to construct and maintain the physical memorial and virtual memorial online for pertuity.
If you are available to join one of the working groups, then please get in touch with one of the memorial project and fundraiser points of contact below for additional information. .
