Contributions may be sent to the NGEF at One Massachusetts Ave. NW, Washington, D.C. 20001. The NGEF is in the midst of an Operating Endowment campaign to support the opening of the National Guard Memorial Grand Gallery. The Minuteman Trust currently has enough funds to support the design and construction of the Grand Gallery, but more is needed to finance its operation. Contributions are tax deductible and may be donated through checks, appreciated stock, gifts of will or residence.
Donations continue to come in at a steady rate.
A memorial fund has been established in honor of Maj. Thomas K. Turnage, who died on Dec. 10. Emmett H. Walker and Maj. Winston Wilson and Francis Greenlief, as well as Lt. Gens. LaVern Weber and John Conaway.
