As we approach the unveiling of the Compton Community Veterans MemorialĀ on November 2, 2024, excitement is building, and the project is progressing beautifully! Our team and community partners have been hard at work, and now weāre calling on local businesses and organizations to join us in making this memorial truly special. The Veterans Memorial project aims to unite the Compton community to create a meaningful and lasting tribute to our veterans.
Local Business Support Needed
To ensure the memorial reflects the honor and sacrifice of our veterans, we are seeking donations of suppliesāsuch as landscaping materials, lighting, or decorative itemsāthat will help make the space a fitting tribute. Your support can make a big difference in creating a beautiful and meaningful environment for visitors to pay their respects. If you are a business or individual interested in contributing, please reach out to us!

Partners Making It Possible
This project wouldnāt be where it is today without the incredible support of our partners:
VFW Post 5394Ā has graciously provided the location for this installation.
Army veteran April Villanueva, whose inspiring community altar concept has shaped the design of the memorial.
Local artists and residents, who have been involved in every step of the design and installation process.
Honor a Veteran
Thereās still time to submit the name and photo of a veteran youād like to honor. This memorial is for the entire community, and we want to recognize as many veterans as possible. You can submitĀ aĀ veteranĀ here, and help ensure their memory is included in this tribute.
Visit the Online Gallery
You can also see the veterans who have already been submitted by visiting our onlineĀ photoĀ gallery. This will give you a preview of the powerful tribute weāre creating and how these individualsā legacies will be honored in the memorial.
We look forward to seeing you on November 2, 2024, for the opening of the Compton Community Veterans Memorial. Thank you for supporting this important project and helping us honor the brave men and women who have served our country.
