WAA 2020 Wreath Placement Update.

Volunteers Are Not Being Accepted.

Please Do Not Visit the Cemetery On Saturday, December 19 In Hopes of Volunteering!

Arlington National Cemetery (ANC) and Wreaths Across America (WAA), along with our partners the U.S. Army Military District of Washington (MDW) and the 3rd U.S. Infantry, “The Old Guard” (TOG), will safely lay and recover approximately 267,000 wreaths to honor our nation’s heroes and their family members this December. ANC cannot accommodate any exceptions for individual wreath placement for individuals who donated wreaths. Wreath placement for family pass holders will only take place on Sunday, December 13th.

Through the plans outlined and developed collaboratively, the mission to Remember, Honor, Teach will be carried out, and the families of these heroes can rest assured their loved one is being remembered and honored this year. Thank you to all those involved in working together to reach this outcome.

We will still need your help to reach the goal of having a sponsored wreath for every service member laid to rest at Arlington. If you are interested in helping to honor a veteran(s) with wreath sponsorships for Arlington, you can do so on this page or by contacting Customer Service at (877) 385-9504 to place an order.

We are grateful for your support of the mission to Remember, Honor, Teach!
