Funding
As members of the Hong Kong Veterans Commemorative Association, we hope that you will solicit funds from individuals of the HKVCA family and friends towards the Memorial Wall. Please use this UPDATED brochure with your request as it contains the information that a donor would like to know. Also available in Chinese.
For memorials, if the family requests that in lieu of flowers donations be made to the Memorial Wall, there are donor cards that may be used. Example
Engaging the interest of local Corporations and agencies in our Memorial Wall is a great way for us to make progress and we will acknowledge these donations on this web site. Want to help in this effort? Please contact the Committee who have packages prepared to help you.
If you wish to have an event to raise funds, please contact the Memorial Wall Committee for guidance.
