Why Donate?
The Enlisted Heritage Hall is a historical research center that falls under the Air University Foundation, a 501C(3) tax-exempt non-profit educational foundation that provides resources and support to military organizations throughout the River Region. The Enlisted Heritage Hall is dedicated to collecting, preserving, and showcasing the contributions of the Air Force enlisted corps. The Heritage Hall relies on donations, brick paver sales, and gift shop sales to continue our mission. The generous donations and purchases by our beloved guests truly are the lifeblood of the Heritage Hall. Below are a few ways in which you can ensure that we are able to preserve yesterday, today, for tomorrow. Please fund our future so that we can preserve your past.
Ways to Donate
Commemorative Brick Plaza Paver Program
About the Bricks
Your personalized engraved commemorative clay brick paver will be 4" x 8" and can be purchased for a donation of $100. Bricks will be ordered in batches when a minimum of 100 bricks are pending. The bricks will be installed in our brick plaza once received, and placement is at the discretion of the Enlisted Heritage Hall staff. After we have received payment for the brick, we will e-mail you a certificate stating that a commemorative brick will be placed in honor of the person on the brick in our brick plaza in front of the Heritage Hall.
Personalization
Bricks have a three line maximum, with no more than 20 characters per line, including spaces and punctuation. Finished bricks will be centered and capitalized. Please use proper rank, etc. No logos or graphics.
Maintenance
Engraved bricks are durable and versatile clay. Normal wear and weather is to be expected. The bricks are important to enhance the appearance of our brick plaza in front of the Air Force Enlisted Heritage Hall. A personalized, commemorative brick paver or donor medallion is an excellent way to recognize a devoted career, to honor service, or acknowledge the dedication of spouses, family members, and many others committed to supporting the Air Force Enlisted Heritage.

Donor Medallion Program
About the Medallion
The medallion program is reserved for our most generous donors. With a generous monetary donation of $250, a customized and permanently engraved medallion will be commissioned in your honor. Additionally, incremental contributions of $250 will be highlighted via individual stars being engraved around the personalized text of your medallion. Each medallion will be proudly displayed in our main exhibit gallery near the front entrance of the Heritage Hall. After payment is processed, we will provide you with a certificate stating that a medallion will be displayed in your honor within our Heritage Hall. The medallions usually take about a week to be engraved and put on display.
Personalization
There is a bit more flexibility for personalization of the medallions, than there is for the brick pavers. You aren't specifically limited to any amount of characters, but please keep in mind that the more characters you request, the smaller the text will be on the medallion. Please call if you need further details on personalization.
