We would appreciate your help! cid:image003.gif at 01C78251.EA630BF0 Tax rebates present a great opportunity to support the memorial! As the federal government continues to send out checks as part of the economic stimulus plan that was recently passed by Congress. This free money from the government is a great chance for those in the community to help support a worthy cause - the Thornton Veterans Memorial. As you know, our project is entirely privately funded - we receive no public money - and we are dependent on the generosity of our supporters. Please consider using part of your rebate to support the Thornton Veterans Memorial - it can't be done without you! Donations can be made online by clicking the orange "donate" button at www.thorntonveteransmemorial.org or you can mail them to Thornton Veterans Memorial Foundation, PO Box 29592, Thornton, CO 80229. Remember too that you can purchase paver bricks at our store!
