At most National, State, and Tribal cemeteries, monuments stand as solemn tributes to the veterans who have given their lives for our country. Millions of dollars are invested by federal and state governments to create grand displays of marble and bronze, ensuring that our heroes are honored in these sacred spaces. However, in stark contrast, many community and municipal cemeteries, which also serve as the final resting places for numerous veterans, lack such monuments or recognition. We believe that every cemetery housing a significant numbers of veterans, regardless of that location, deserves a monument that reflects the sacrifices of our brave men and women made for our nation and the freedoms we hold dear.

This belief is the driving force behind our Monuments Program. Our mission is to ensure that community and municipal cemeteries—where many veterans are laid to rest—have prominent, meaningful monuments. These monuments not only honor our fallen heroes but also serve as gathering places for the community, providing an opportunity for remembrance and reflection throughout the year. Through this initiative, we strive to offer veterans the respect and recognition they so deeply deserve, no matter where they are buried.
