Veterans Memorial Fund
In 1998 the Veterans Memorial Garden was constructed in the Allendale Community Park, as a dedication to the men and women from our community who served the United States in military service. To continue to honor our local veterans, a fund has been established in the Allendale Community Foundation called the Allendale Veterans Memorial Endowment Fund.
This fund was established to provide services such as:
· Annual Veterans Day Service
· Purchase of flags for veterans at the Allendale Township Cemetery
· Perpetual care for the Veterans Memorial Garden
Would you please consider making a gift to support our local veterans? Your gift will benefit the Allendale Veterans Memorial Endowment Fund…“For Good. For ever.” You can dedicate your gift in honor of the veteran(s) in your life. The dedications will be listed on the Allendale Community Foundation web site, and on other publications for the fund.
Please use this form to make a gift in honor of the veterans in your life!
