About this campaign
Arlington is our Nation's veterans cemetery, with men and women buried from every conflict, every branch of the service, and every state.
Help us place a wreath and pursue our mission to Remember, Honor, and Teach.
2014 marks the 150th anniversary of Arlington National Cemetery.
*Back by popular request - the WAA Logo T-Shirt That Also Places A Wreath To Honor A Veteran Buried At Arlington
Each stone marks a name, bears a story, and represents a family who went without a loved one in service to our Country. Let's leave no stone behind.
Wreaths have been placed to honor those buried on those hallowed grounds since 1992. Our goal is to honor every veteran buried there in this significant year.
Last year 143,000 wreaths were placed on headstones at Arlington alone. This year the goal is to place 230,000 and we need your help.
Wreaths Across America is a national 501(c)3 with over 1000 participating locations nationwide. We receive no government funds in support of this tribute. Each wreath is a gift to honor the families, by those who know that showing our appreciation is the most we can do for the families they left behind.
Wear your t-shirt with pride and help educate others about the mission to Remember, Honor, and Teach about the character of our veterans. Together we can show their families that we will never forget their service and sacrifices.
Please consider giving beyond the cost of your t-shirt. For every $15 sponsored - a wreath will be placed at a veteran's headstone as an living, evergreen symbol of all that was sacrificed to protect our freedoms.
For example, there are over 10,000 stones in Section 60 deserving of a wreath and remembrance gift this holiday season. Section 60 of Arlington is the location where many of our most recent casualties in the War on Terror are laid to rest. The holiday season for many of these families has been changed forever. But each year we hear poignant and emotional stories from those who hearts were warmed just a little when they saw that others still feel and care about their loss and sacrifice. It is the least the we can do.
We are seeing many groups, businesses, and organizations starting to step forward and adopt sections of Arlington as their goal - because together we can honor all the veterans, and their families who have that deep connection to those hallowed grounds.

Honoring Ralph E Slaven Sr. USMC and John Knowles Slaven USN
I am supporting this campaign because my father is veteran of the Vietman War. He was with the United States Marine Corp. He always tells us Once a Marie Always a Marine.
Good cause
I would love to come and help lay the wreaths, but am unable. This is my way of helping. My uncle is buried there and I would love to honor him as well as all of the other selfless soldiers.
Heard about this wonderful organization at the Veterans Day Ceremony at the Vietnam Veterans Memorial yesterday.
We visited Arlington last year and also went to the Tomb of the Unknown Soldiers. It was by far one of the most heartfelt and touching experiences ever! God Bless all laid to rest there for their service and dedication to our freedom!
In honor and memory of my father, CWO4Hugh C. Suttle, U.S.Army. And for all the fallen heroes at Arlington and cemeteries across the country and overseas.
