REMEMBER the fallen;HONOR those who serve;TEACH our children the value of freedom.Overview:501(c)3 non-profit organization formed in 2007 as an extension of The Arlington Wreath Project, with over 100 participating locations in all 50 states, and 24 national veteran cemeteries on foreign soil. What began in 1992 with a trailer load of wreaths, decorated by volunteers and laid at the graves of fallen soldiers at Arlington National Cemetery has now become a national organization with over 1400 participating locations - all focused on the mission to Remember - Honor - and Teach. Wreaths Across America could not continue to grow and thrive due to the overwhelming amount of support from our volunteers. Our volunteers are our "boots on the ground"​ who push the mission forward on a daily basis. WAA is non-denomination, non-political, and all inclusive. There are many ways to get involved in the WAA mission, whether by becoming location leaders, a fundraising partner or by volunteering on National Wreaths Across America Day. WAA has had tremendous support from the Trucking Industry. The trucking industry has taken Wreaths Across America mission and moved it forward. What stated as one donated tractor trailer load of wreaths in 1992 has turned into over 500 donated loads of wreaths. The whole trucking industry has embraced the mission, from big and small trucking companies, to team drivers to individual owner operators! Without the support of the trucking industry it would be near impossible to "Move the Mission Forward!"​To our dedicated volunteers who are hitting the pavement daily to spread the story of WAA, to the trucking industry who are our Rolling Ambassadors, to our corporate sponsors who have brought the mission into your company...Thank you for your dedication and commitment to Wreaths Across America Mission!
