Fundraising efforts have begun and it is very important that we all contribute as much as we can for the newest and "first in the nation" memorial to our Afghanistan and Iraq veterans who have served our country and are working to bring democracy to the middle east.
The first way to make a donation to the monument fund by mailing a check to:
Derry parks & Recreation
31 West Broadway
Derry, NH 03038
or you may drop it off at the same address. ALL DONATIONS ARE TAX DEDUCTIBLE!
The second way to help out is to attend a pancake breakfast at APPLEBEE's from 8-10am on SAT 3/24 and for $5.00 you can eat breakfast and make a contribution as all proceeds go to the fund.
And then on 3/28 at the Flagstone cinemas- Check out the movie Flag of my fathers directed by Clint Eastwood. about WWII and Iowa gima. again donations going to the fund.
The committee is trying to reach a goal of $50,000 and looking at completing the monument by Memorial Day.
This is a great project and one for all of Derry residents to be proud of. Please consider donating any way you can and also please tell at least 5 friends about this.
