Fund Raising:
Donation receipts for December were $525, bringing the current
total to $9,582 against our needed goal of $25,000 to construct, place
and maintain the Memorial. Donations
were better than November, largely due to a gift from the Class of 1965
following its 50th Reunion Celebration.
We continue to get there slowly, but certainly appreciate
everyone who has generously donated so far. The Project Team needs
your support and we certainly trust donations will pick up in the new
year, after the Holidays are over. The total number of donors is now at 86,
with four new donors once again added in the past month. Our $25,000 goal is very
achievable, especially if every reader would spare as little as $10 for
this worthy cause. The majority of HixNews
readers have not yet donated, so please come through for us as soon as
you can! Remember, your donations are
tax deductible. Just follow
the simple instructions below. Your
generosity will be very much appreciated. Donation checks should be made out to: Hicksville Vietnam Era Memorial Project And should
be mailed to: Hicksville Vietnam Era Memorial Project An alphabetical list of current
donors appears at the end of this monthly update.
Many of the donations
have been accompanied by notes thanking the Project Team for its efforts
to build the Memorial. Such
notes make our work even
more gratifying and are very much appreciated.
Some of the additional notes we've received are once again
published in this issue of HixNews. The
Confirmed List of Names still stands at 1,900, but some missing data was
added in December. There
has been no change in the Unconfirmed List of Names for some time now.
We continue to need help from all our readers here!! As
a HixNews reader, please help
us by reviewing both lists when you select the "click here" options
near the bottom of this update. To
save you time, just look for names from your class year and other years
you may be familiar with, as a reference and see if you have a new name
or some missing data on existing names to email to us.
Class years, where known, are specifically shown and missing data
is marked in red, to make it easy for you to see what's needed. The
Unconfirmed List was created to specifically insure we don't leave
anyone behind from earlier class years (the 1940's and 50's) who
served during the Vietnam War Era and deserve recognition.
Please see if you can help us establish if these folks served
during the Vietnam Era (Vietnam Era dates are shown in the "Memorial
Qualifications" section below). Memorial Qualifications
and Project Team:
Overall Qualifications for the Memorial have been displayed in
this report monthly for a long time now and have not changed.
If you are a new reader, please check a past issue of HixNews
for qualifications and the list of other Project Team members. Here's what we continue to need from each person reading this to
