This Month
When we ask members what they value most about belonging to the Marines’ Memorial, our educational component often tops the list. We are proud to enlighten not only our members, but also the greater community, about the sacrifices of veterans and the pressing issues of the day. Many events are offered free of charge, and we can’t do this without the generosity of our supporters. Underwriting an event is a win-win-win: for your Club, for the community, and for your family, company or foundation, which receives a tax deduction and widespread recognition. Interested? Find out more here or email Development Director Chelsea Leonard. Thank you for your support! |
