Review for Southern Arizona Veterans Memorial Cemetery Foundation, Sierra Vista, AZ, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

SAVMC Foundation is a non profit organization that supports the Southern Arizona Veterans Memorial Cemetery with special beautification projects. They funded the construction of a "Historical Soldiers' Memorial Cemetery" for 58 soldiers from the 1860s that was relocated there from an Archeological project in Tucson Arizona. They are helping fund raising efforts for the AMVETS Carillon bell tower project this year. This $100,000 project is a living memorial for our fallen veterans.
