This Memorial Day, we return for our 6th annual Flags of Honor tribute at Houston National Cemetery. This is one of the most meaningful traditions we hold as an organization.

🕊️ Each flag represents a life
📖 Each name tells a story
🙏 Each placement is an act of gratitude

This is not symbolic volunteering.
This is hands in the ground.
Names spoken out loud.
Respect shown the right way.

We arrive quietly.
We work with purpose.
We leave knowing we honored them well.
