MVAF, cfsbank award $1,000 to Donora memorial fund
The Mon Valley Alliance Foundation, in partnership with cfsbank, awarded a $1,000 Town-2-Town mini grant to the AP Delsandro Memorial Fund in Donora.
The MVAF Town-2-Town Grant has been supporting local organizations with funding and operational support since 2018 and is partnering with cfsbank for a fourth year.
The AP Delsandro Memorial Fund was founded in the 1980s with the goal of raising funds for veterans organizations and other charities around Donora and to pay tribute to the 89 Donora residents who sacrificed their lives in World War I, II and the Korea and Vietnam wars.
The memorial is located on Meldon Avenue at the heart of downtown Donora.
The memorial committee has held recent fundraisers including a donor brick drive and its 39th annual golf outing to support the project. More information on the AP Delsandro Memorial Fund is available on Facebook@APDVeteransMemorial.
