Nationwide in Tribute to America's Fallen Heroes
These wreaths will be placed on gravesites at Edge Hill Cemetery in
On National Wreaths Across America Day (Saturday, December 13), members of the University community will join thousands of volunteers nationwide to lay wreaths in remembrance of veterans who served with courage. This year, APUS and its National Society of Leadership and Success (NSLS) chapter, along with several other student-led organizations, sponsored 601 fresh balsam wreaths as part of this long-running tribute; additional wreaths were sponsored by individuals.
"Wreaths Across America gives us a meaningful way to connect with our community and live out our University mission," said Amy Everson, Director of University Recognition and Institutional Events. "Each wreath placed at Edge Hill Cemetery is a gesture of gratitude and an important reminder that the legacies of those who served continue to inspire us today."
APUS encourages participation from its students, alumni, faculty, and staff, many of whom are active-duty service members, veterans, military spouses, or dependents. Those interested in volunteering can lay wreaths at any participating cemetery on December 13 (sponsorships for wreaths this year are closed).
