Honor American veterans with Bricks of Honor

A personal monument of service in the heart of Indianapolis.

Why do we place bricks?
When men and women protect our freedom, will we stand ready to place a marker of their courage and strength?

Bricks of Honor are lasting tributes that honor the memory of individual American veterans. All the bricks are located on the circle surrounding the Soldiers and Sailors Monument.

Your contribution provides a visual demonstration of your commitment to the brave men and women who have guarded our freedom for generations.

A brick can be purchased for $125. Each brick represents a tax deductible charitable contribution. It will be engraved with the service member’s name, rank, branch of service and dates of service. Bricks are prepared and installed on a quarterly basis, as weather permits.
