Fund Raising:
Donations surged in March, following last month's update and
thanks to an email blast to all readers by Bob Casale.
$1,475 was added this past month, bringing the current total to
$11,882 against our needed goal of $25,000 to construct, place and
maintain the Memorial. Donations
are now back on track and should receive added momentum now that the
finished Memorial Center Plaque has been received by Bill Walden and
will be encased in a display at the Hicksville VFW and used at
additional donation sites, such as the April 15th Hicksville
Alumni Foundation Fundraising Event.
The Foundation is generously allowing us to set up a Memorial
donation table at this event and has also promised a portion of total
donation receipts to the Memorial Project! Even with these events, the Project Team
continues to need individual HixNews
reader support and we certainly trust your donations will continue to be
sent. The total number of donors has now
reached 118, with 23 new donors added in the past month.
Additional funds have also been received due to the generosity of
repeat donors. If every reader would spare as little as
$10 for this worthy cause, our $25,000 goal will be very achievable. The majority of HixNews
readers have still not donated, so please help 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 And should be mailed to: Hicksville An alphabetical list of current
donors appears at the end of this monthly update.
With
one addition in March, the Confirmed List of Names now totals 1,905.
Also, additional
missing data was added this month.
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
do: Please
