Boy Scout Eagle Project Fundraiser for VETERANS

My Name is Vikram Ravi, and I am a Life Scout part of Troop 888 working on my Eagle Project in San Ramon, California. 
For my Boy Scout Eagle Project, I always knew I wanted to elevate and showcase service from our veterans, so I was fortunate to talk to the Alamo-Lafayette Veterans Cemetery and found out that they needed some help.  
My Project consists of 2 parts, the first, to build an online, interactive map for the Cemetery so visitors can easily find Veterans who are buried there, and the second is to fund for proper grave markers to indicate that a veteran is buried at a specific grave. 
There are over 200 veterans at the burial site, and the vast majority don’t have grave markers, and the ones who do only have tiny and improper pointers not fit to represent those who died for our country. 
This Fundraiser will help me procure grave markers for the veterans which are made of weatherproof and highly durable metal and have the official United States Seal, made by a professional store. 
These will indicate to visitors and families of the veterans that a grave hosts a veteran, and will truly be able to honor these heroes for their invaluable sacrifice to our country. 
To fund this project, my goal is to raise $4,000 to order over 200 of these quality markers.
I would greatly appreciate your donation (any amount helps) to properly recognize and respectfully honor these men and women.
Yours In Scouting, 
Vikram Ravi
