Gunterberg Foundation donation paves way to move Vietnam Veterans monument to Cape
By CJ HADDAD - | Jan 6, 2021
The Vietnam Veterans Memorial will be moved from Fort Myers to Eco Park in Cape Coral.
The spirit of giving during the holiday season was alive and well last Tuesday morning in Cape Coral at the newly opened Brotherhood of Heroes Resource Center and Museum.
Founder and long-time community philanthropist Dr. Carol Rae Culliton presented Gary Bowler, president of the Veterans Midpoint Memorial Charitable Trust Inc., with a $20,000 check on behalf of the Gunterberg Foundation to relocate the Vietnam Veterans monument, currently located just over the bridge in Fort Myers, to Cape Coral’s Eco Park Veterans Area.
