Tips & Advice
- If you plan to volunteer, check the Wreaths Across America website for a location near you and register in advance, as many locations have specific coordination needs.
- Consider bringing children or young family members to participate; the 'Teach' aspect of the mission is a core component, and it's a valuable learning experience.
- When sponsoring a wreath, you can choose to sponsor a specific location if you have a particular cemetery or veteran in mind, or let WAA designate a recipient.
- Dress warmly and wear comfortable shoes if you plan to volunteer for wreath laying, as many ceremonies take place outdoors in potentially cold December weather.
- Explore the 'Remember Wall' on their website to learn individual stories of service members before or after sponsoring a wreath, deepening your connection to the mission.
