Below are the donors for the Belleville Veterans Memorial Park for the fourth quarter of 2016.  We just hit the half way mark of $25,000 raised of the $50,000 needed to complete this project. With the help from local business, and individuals, and organizations from the area we should make our goal this year. 

If we can raise the money needed, we could start as early as this fall or next spring building this memorial for all the Veterans and their families who have ties to the Belleville area. We are asking for a minimum donation of $100 to list a Veterans name, however all donations whatever size will be appreciated. 

The American Legion from Belleville flags approximately 400 graves in the immediate Belleville area every Memorial Day, and we would like to include each and every one of these Veterans along with Veterans still living today.

Please send donations to Duppler-Smith Post #460 American Legion, PO Box 455, Belleville, WI 53508-0455, and if you are honoring a Veteran by name let us know if he or she is alive or deceased.  Your donation is tax deductible, as we are a 501c(3) non-profit organization, and you will be sent a receipt for your donation if you provide us your address. If you would like to discuss any special donations for recognition, please talk with any Legion member or send an email to wfenster@charter.net or call (608) 455-5700. With participation from everyone we can have a Memorial Park you will be proud of.

Names marked with *** denotes multiple donations given. Thank you for your donations.
