Our Mission

Veterans and Friends of Gourdin Memorial Park is a non-profit organization dedicated to raising funds for the design, construction, placement, and maintenance of the General Edward Gourdin statue and the bas-reliefs to be installed in the General Edward O. Gourdin African American Veterans Memorial Park in Roxbury. We have been working for over twenty years to complete many important milestones in this highly complex project of local, state, and federal significance.
