WILL YOU ANSWER
THE SERVICE BRANCH CHALLENGE?

In 1982 the American people helped The Vietnam Veterans Memorial fund complete an impossible mission to heal a nation and bring comfort and solace to a generation of Veterans. Today the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Fund is working to complete this mission by building The Education Center - and once again we need your help.

The Wall is a revered monument built for the survivors, families, and for a conflicted nation. The Education Center is being built to educate our children and grandchildren about the Vietnam War. It will bring The Wall to life for all future generations - telling the story of the Vietnam War by telling the personal stories of those whose names appear in it.

ABOUT VVMF

Established in 1979, the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Fund is dedicated to preserving the legacy of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington, D.C., promoting healing and educating about the impact of the Vietnam War. Authorized by Congress, its most recent initiative is building the Education Center at The Wall, an underground facility near the Memorial that will help visitors discover the stories of those named on The Wall and celebrate the values embodied by all service members who served in all of America’s wars. Other Memorial Fund initiatives include educational programs for students and teachers, a traveling Wall replica that honors our nation's veterans and six events held each year at The Wall to honor and remember those we lost during the Vietnam War.
