The National War Memorial Registry

In late 2012, The Memorial Day Foundation created The National War Memorial Registry. We did this as part of our mission to preserve, protect, honor, and remember our nation’s war memorials. With the registry, we created a permanent digital record of all our war memorials.
We encourage the public to take pride in their local war memorials. Submit them to the Registry. The Foundation created an app for smartphones or tablets that allows the public to upload images of their local war memorial right to the registry.
This easy-to-use app allows the public to contribute war memorials from their local community with little effort. To date, many Americans contributed images to the registry. Giving us over 12,000 war memorials in our database within our first 18 months.
We know that this continues to grow. We hope that this project will never be completed. Our nation always finds a reason to honor those who serve our nation past, present, and future. What we do know is that we always have as complete a repository as possible with the help of the public.
