Memorial

korean war memorial drawing2Welcome to the North Carolina Korean War Veteran’s Association Web site.

Several years ago a group of Korean War Veteran’s in North Carolina set out to create a memorial that would honor and remember those who fought in the Korean War. The town of Mint Hill donated a section of one of its parks, and an architect, Kent Goolsby of Charlotte, donated his expertise in helping design the memorial. So far, around $100,000 have been raised and the first stage of construction will begin this year.

If you would like to donate to the fund, there are several ways. First, you could click the donate button on the right of this web page. Even $5 will make a difference. You can also purchase a paver honoring a veteran of the Korean War or another veteran that will be permanently placed at the memorial.  There are not many Korean War veterans who fought at the beginning of the war in the 1950s. Help the North Carolina Korean War Veteran’s Association honor forever those who fought in the “Forgotten War” by donating to the construction of the memorial.
