MEMORIAL PARK CAMPAIGN
This project affords Niagara County Community College (NCCC) an opportunity to honor the greater Niagara County veteran community by providing a Veterans Memorial Park representing those who served in the armed forces. Relocating and expanding the current standalone monument enables the College to offer community programming celebrating Niagara County’s proud heritage of armed forces enlistment. Area veterans and their families along with NCCC alumni and employees would be invited to memorialize their service on the park’s monument. They would be honored annually during Veteran’s Day ceremonies. From Lockport to Niagara Falls, the impact of this project would endure for generations to come.
