ALNC Support Committee Website Homepage
The Abraham Lincoln National Cemetery Support Committee (ALNCSC) is registered with the IRS and the State of Illinois as a 501(c)(3) private nonprofit organization founded by military veterans, family members, and interested citizens to provide support for the maintenance, improvement, and continued development of the Abraham Lincoln National Cemetery. We welcome all support for this cause be it a financial donation or a donation of time & energy.
US Department of Veteran Affairs Give the "Go-Ahead" to the Lincoln Statue ProjectIn February, 2011, the Support Committee received a letter from the Department of Veteran Affairs officially acknowledging its acceptance of the Life-Size statue as illustrated below—thus opening the way for the Support Committee to proceed with the publicizing of the project and fundraising.
DonationsThe total project is estimated to cost $110,000 and will take 12-18 months to complete. Tax deductible donations can be made via mail or online www.ALNCemeterySupport.org All donations will be acknowledged and those donating online will receive an immediate receipt. Checks should be made payable to "ALNC Support Committee." Please note that a convenience charge will be added to your online donation. This is the fee we are charged by the credit card companies to process your donation. Your payment of this convenience charge permits us to devote your entire donation to the project. Please note that donations exceeding the final cost of the statue project will be used to fund future enhancement projects needed by the cemetery. Thank You. Next MeetingThe Support Committee meets at 7:00 PM on the second Wednesday of each month (with the exception of the months of July and December). Meetings are held at the American Legion Post 1080, 2625 W. Ingalls, Joliet, Illinois. New members are always welcome. |
