A Place To Honor And Remember Our Heroes

Active Military

Veterans

First Responders

Healthcare Workers

Our Mission

The Arizona Heroes Memorial is dedicated to honoring and celebrating Arizona’s heroes, past and present, for their selfless service and sacrifice. The memorial is a place of education where future generations can learn about the courage of the heroes who put themselves in harm’s way to preserve our health, safety, and freedom. The memorial is a solemn place for reflection and remembrance, a refuge for families and friends whose loved ones paid the ultimate price. The Arizona Heroes Memorial ensures that their legacy of valor and sacrifice will continue to inspire us for years to come.

Forever Bricks in the Legacy Garden

Honor your active military person, veteran, first responder, or healthcare worker with a Forever Brick that will be placed in the Legacy Garden area of the 2.5 acre Memorial. Once these are gone, ‘they’re gone!’ Order yours today!

(Heroes do NOT need to be residents of Arizona!)

Hello again from the Arizona Heroes Memorial in Oro Valley! A lot of progress to report today. Parsons Steel Builders was onsite today installing the frame of the Amphitheater roof and will be completing their work in the next several days. The Spencer Construction crew formed and poured curbing for the parking lot area, and it looks great! Stop or drive by for a look, and if you get the chance, thank the workers onsite for their dedicated efforts. They have been braving the heat for months to make our Memorial a reality. Could not have done this without them! ... See MoreSee Less
