INSPIRING HER FUTURE BEGINS WITH YOU.
HER STORY. OUR LEGACY.
Your support is critical to the ongoing operations and mission of America’s only national memorial to honor and tell the story of the 3 million women who have served. Capturing and preserving her story, our legacy, through stories of service and sacrifice is integral to our national history and pride, and inspiring future generations of leaders, trailblazers, and changemakers. Your support makes a difference – igniting the spark, one story at a time.
The Military Women’s Memorial operates thanks to the generosity of donors like you—many of whom are the very women the Memorial celebrates. The Memorial is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization. For more information, please contact the Military Women’s Memorial at 703-822-7270 or [email protected].

SPRING AT THE MEMORIAL
It’s Spring at the Military Women’s Memorial – the perfect time to renew our commitment to each woman who has served our nation and revitalize America’s only memorial to honor Her Service and tell Her Story.
At the Memorial, repairs to the plaza are underway. In a few short months, visitors will be inspired and moved by a revitalized 200-jet fountain and pool, which represent both the individual and collective voices and stories of all women who have served. As we refresh and reimagine our programs and events, we are excited to offer more opportunities to engage in-person and virtually, allowing us to connect more closely with you. Our 2024 registration campaign received a refresh to ensure all women’s stories of service are preserved at their Memorial. The Memorial is leading a new Strive for 500 registration campaign that challenges each state to find and register the service of 500 eligible women. And our new Adopt A Woman Veteran Project to ensure the stories of service of military women no longer with us are included in the MWM National Register is well underway.
There are so many new and exciting way to participate and things to look forward to.
We hope you will join us for Spring At The Memorial by supporting our military women and renewing your commitment to telling Her Story.
