How to Support

Support our Veterans: The gift of honoring military service provides a memorable expression of gratitude to a veteran that is sure to be cherished. Consider donating a brick to the Gold Star Walkway or a Military Banner to honor and recognize Yorba Linda Gold Star and Active Duty Military Personnel.

Or simply just donate money to the Yorba Linda Veterans Memorial.

Military Service Recognition

Gold Star Brick Walkway:

The Yorba Linda Veterans Memorial Association (YLVMA) continues to take Brick Orders (PDF) to honor an active or Veteran member of the U.S Armed Forces.

The YLVMA also offers individuals, businesses, and organizations to sponsor an Orange County “Fallen Hero of the Armed Services” by purchasing a Gold Star Brick (PDF) for Military Personnel Killed in Action since September 11, 2001. This brick honors military personnel who lived in Orange County.

Direct Donation:

Your tax-deductible donation is of great importance to the operation of the Memorial. Donation funds are used to accomplish required maintenance at the site and to keep the bricks, Eagle, walkways, and landscaping in top condition.

Most important, you are helping to pay tribute to veterans who have helped preserve the freedoms we enjoy as Americans. If you would like to pledge support as a direct, tax deductible donation, please cleck the button below.
