| Memorials Fund
The US Submarine Veterans' Charitable
Foundation established the Memorials Fund to act as a tax deductible means
to aid Submarine related memorials and USN Museum Submarines. Many of these
sites are repaired and maintained by volunteers that devote their precious
spare time to insure the presentability of our heritage.
The Foundation Board of Directors, with
input from the Memorials Fund Committee, administer this important outreach
program. It is generally felt that these sites represent the Submarine
Force and it's departed shipmates on Eternal Patrol.
The aid provided will be in the form
of funds to purchase cleaning supplies, interior paint, polish, floor tiles,
and other materials. Major construction projects that
do not have tax deductible status may use this Fund as a means to raise
money with tax deductibility provisions.
Funds will be distributed as they become
available. Projects requesting support should do so well in advance of
the proposed start of the project. The Memorials & Ceremonies Handbook, Chapter 7, has detailed instructions for bases to apply for USSVCF assistance.
There are currently several funds set
up and they may be accessed by the links below.
