This year, our Fort Pierce location is honored to be a distribution hub for Wreaths Across America. Each December, on National Wreaths Across America Day, the mission of Wreaths Across America to Remember, Honor, & Teach is carried out by coordinating wreath-laying ceremonies at Arlington National Cemetery, as well as at more than 1,600 additional locations in all 50 U.S. states, at sea & abroad.
Celebrated this year on December 14th, people across the world will partake in National Wreaths Across America Day to express appreciation & remembrance for our fallen service members. From the Revolutionary War to present-day conflicts, our veterans are devoted sons & daughters, fathers & mothers, sisters & brothers. They come from all backgrounds in life to place those lives on the line for our freedoms. There are millions of individual stories to tell, & through Wreaths Across America, you can hear their story by viewing the 4,760 recent posts made by their supporters or you can choose to sponsor a wreath in honor of or in memory of an American hero.
Wreaths Across America began with one man’s annual tribute to our veterans which inspired a legion of volunteers, & through the years, gave rise to the Wreaths Across America of today.
