The Voices Appeal is conducted in the spring of each year to seek funds to support the expansion of the public space at the Army Heritage and Education Center. The Foundation uses these funds to support design and construction activities. Donors that make substantial contributions to support Foundation construction programs may receive recognition within the AHEC facilities in accordance with a donor recognition plan coordinated with the Army Heritage and Education Center and the Department of the Army. Visit our Donor Recognition section for more details.

The Kleber Society recognizes those individuals and corporations who donate on an annual basis to support educational programs at the Army Heritage Center Foundation. The Society is named in honor of Dr. Brooks Kleber. Dr. Kleber was a graduate of Dickinson College in Carlisle and held an M.A. and a Ph.D. from the University of Pennsylvania. He served as Chief Historian, Army Training and Doctrine Command and as the Deputy Chief Historian, US Army Center of Military History. As a young man, he served as a Soldier in the 99th Division during WWII and was captured soon after D-Day in 1944. While a POW, he so valued learning that when he and his fellow prisoners were moved from one camp to another he carried two history books with him rather than seeing them destroyed.

The Kleber Society support allows the Foundation’s educational staff to work with high school students in the “school to careers” program and university student interns pursuing history, education or communicative arts degrees. The Kleber Society also supports the Foundation’s efforts in support of National History Day and special programs and educational products for teachers, students, and the public.

The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania has approved the Foundation as a provider of innovative educational programs. Corporations who pay taxes in Pennsylvania may receive tax credits for donations made to approved Foundation programs through the Commonwealth’s Educational Improvement Tax Credit Program.

The United States Army Heritage and Education Center, the Army’s world-class archival, research and education center at Carlisle Barracks, Pennsylvania, will feature a "Soldiers Walk" to commemorate those who have served their nation.

The "Soldiers Walk" will be a prominent feature of the complex and will greet visitors as they enter the complex of buildings. To create this inspiring walkway, the Army Heritage Center Foundation is offering a commemorative brick and paver program. You may choose from three sizes: 4" x 8" and 8" x 8" bricks, or 2'x2' pavers. To further personalize your brick, there are a variety of logos which may be engraved on the 8" x 8" bricks and 2' x 2' pavers.

Your commemorative brick is produced by Olde Mill Impressions, a leading commemorative brick manufacturer and until the "Soldiers Walk" is installed on the Center grounds, displayed in a plaza at the entrance to Ridgway Hall. Upon ordering, please allow six (6) to eight (8) weeks for processing and installation of your brick.

Thank you for helping bring the Army Story to life and for supporting the United States Army Heritage and Education Center!
