Update: Poston concentration camp barrack

FUNDING NEEDED TO RELOCATE HISTORIC POSTON BARRACK

     The Poston Community Alliance is in immediate need for additional funding to relocate a barrack in its original state from Parker, Arizona to Poston Camp I Site.  

     The historic preservation team is struggling to find funds to stabilize the fragile barrack before our deadline: May 15.  

      Although the Alliance has already received $31,000 from the National Park Service and $10,000 from the National Trust for Historic Preservation, to meet the requirements of the Department of Interior, an additional $10,000 is required.

The Poston Community Alliance received funding from the National Park Service to produce  a short documentary film on Poston's Mothers & Babies.

 We are now in pre-production and are in search of former Poston internees who were mothers and can provide us with an interview.
