• Donate Now The Massachusetts Iraq and Afghanistan Fallen Heroes Memorial Fund was founded in 2010 by local decorated military members, veterans and Gold Star Families. Dedicated to honor Bay State men and women who served in Iraq and Afghanistan and gave their lives to our nation. Since the state can not fundraise for the Memorial, our group has been selected as the nonprofit partner that will take on the official fundraising role.

  • MOving memorialAnnounced at a State House ceremony in 2009, the interactive touch screen video tribute was nearly abandoned due to a lack of private funds needed to complete the project. In the summer of 2010, Boston Firefighters and local veterans stepped in to raise the funds needed to complete the mobile memorial. Here is the Internet Kiosk
