Remember the fallen. Honor those who serve. Teach the next generation the value of freedom. It’s the mission of Wreaths Across America. This year, National Wreaths Across America Day will be held on Saturday, December 16, 2023. You can take part as a volunteer in your own community to remember, honor and teach.

As a volunteer, you can help lay wreaths locally to honor our veterans. No matter where they served or how, this simple act strives to ensure that no one is forgotten.

Who doesn't love a kind note or a care package at the holidays?! Virtually "adopt" an overseas troop and add a dose of thoughtfullness and care to their days. You don't need to know a troop personally to get involved. Operation Shoebox takes care of the details so you don't have to.
