Mission
Statement
The Central Coast Veterans Memorial Museum (CCVMM) is a history museum, 501c3 non-profit organization, that educates all age groups, preserves history, and honors veterans by recording veteran stories and providing history exhibits, services, programs, events. Their mission is to honor all veterans, past and present, and to tell their stories, with emphasis on those from the Central Coast of California.
The Veterans Museum is a designated member of the Library of Congress (LOC) Veterans History Project, with over 500 veteran stories recorded by the museum since 2002. The Veterans Museum works in conjunction with LOC to collect and preserve first-hand accounts of men and women who have served our nation. CCVMM believes every veteran’s story of service is worthy of preservation, whether they served during peacetime or wartime, regardless of what job they performed. Their service and sacrifices will not be forgotten.
“Over the years the United States has sent many of its fine young men and women into great peril to fight for freedom beyond our borders. The only amount of land we have ever asked for in return is enough to bury those that did not return”
Gen. Colin Powell
