When We Teach Them, They Pay It Forward
Wreaths Across America has thousands of volunteers around the world, and many of them are young people. That makes the mission to remember, honor and teach that much more gratifying for all involved. When we show them by example and involvement, they will pay it forward just as Jordan Codispoti of New Jersey is doing.
Wreaths for the Dennis Zilinski Foundation (NJ0137P)
On Saturday, December 7th we will be taking a bus full of volunteers up to West Point to join Wreaths Across America in their Wreath laying ceremony/efforts. We have a scholarship recipient who has championed a drive/sponsorship campaign for people to sponsor wreaths we lay at West Point Cemetery.
