Fund Raising:
$320 was received in September from two new donors and one repeat donor.
This brings our current total to $19,372, with a total of $18,497
in our bank account after last year's IRS filing deduction.
The total number of donors has now
reached 182, still a very small percentage of nearly 2,000 HixNews readers. Donations are still only 9%
of our readership.
If you have yet to donate and can spare as little as $10 for this
worthy cause to recognize your fellow alumni who served our Great
Country, we can achieve our needed goal of $25,000 soon. Remember, all donations are
tax deductible. Just follow
the simple instructions below. Your
generosity will be very much appreciated. Donation checks should be made out to: And should be mailed to: Hicksville An alphabetical list of current
donors appears at the end of this monthly update. We began accepting
donations in October, 2014, upon achieving tax-exempt status from the
IRS. $3,400 was raised in
the remaining 3 months of 2014, $6,200 in 2015 and $8,300 in 2016. If we
can raise an additional $7,100 this year we will achieve our final goal.
So far, however during the first 9 months of 2017, we have only
raised $1,450, way behind the rate needed to complete the Project. Recent Accomplishments: ·
The Hicksville Fire
Department will held their yearly golf outing in September and is
donating a portion of their proceeds to the Memorial Fund.
Bill Walden will learn the details in October.
·
The website link in
HixNews that will make credit card donations possible and easy to
accomplish remains a work in progress. Our
bank's computer department is now assisting with setting this up and
we hope to have this available for HixNews
readers very soon. ·
Work has begun on design
of the stone on which the Memorial's Center Plaque will be mounted.
Work has also started to determine the granite and stone supplier
we will use for the Memorial's construction. The
Confirmed List of Names remains at 1,911.
No additional progress has been made on the missing data for many
names. 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:
Overall Qualifications for the Memorial were displayed monthly in
this report for a long time and have not changed.
If you are a new reader, or have reviewed the qualifications
before and want to remind yourself of them, please check a January, 2015
or earlier issue of HixNews by
going to the Hixnews archive
section on the website. Here's what we need from each person reading this update to do: Please
