LIVE WITH PURPOSE
Wreaths Across America
Fort Scott National Cemetery
The Wreaths Across America fundraising theme for 2024 is “Live With Purpose”. With that in mind, we need your help again, says location Coordinator Diann Tucker. Each year we renew our goal to provide a wreath for each grave site at Fort Scott National Cemetery on national wreaths day; this year that day is December 14. There are nearly 7000 brave soldiers resting at Fort Scott National Cemetery who deserve to be remembered. Our mission, “Remember, Honor, and Teach”, is worth committing to.
Wreaths are $17.00 each. Please consider purchasing a wreath (or multiples) is Tucker’s request. Make it “your purpose” to sponsor wreaths at our local cemetery. We appreciate your donations and ask that you share this event with your friends and family. We need their help too. All sponsorship donations must be received by November 19 and are tax deductible.
To donate, or for any questions you have, please contact Diann Tucker (620-224-7054) or Mika (620-223-6700). Cash, checks and credit cards are accepted. Checks should be made payable to Wreaths Across America and sent to 746 215th St., Fort Scott, KS 66701. You can also contact us at [email protected]. If your donation is “grave specific” for a special person, we will need their name. In the event that we do not receive enough donations for all grave sites, we will provide wreaths first to the grave specific sites that received sponsorship.
Diann Tucker wants to invite you to the ceremony and wreath laying on December 14. She said they cannot do this without the many volunteers who share their time for this cause.
