Washington Crossing Wreaths for Veterans is Proud to be Named the #2 Top Sponsorship Group in PA for Wreaths Across America

 Thanks to local support, PA0576 raised sponsorships to place 10,898 veterans’ ceremonial wreaths at Washington Crossing National Cemetery

   Each year, national nonprofit Wreaths Across America (WAA) recognizes top sponsorship groups for excellence in serving their local community while helping to share the yearlong mission to Remember, Honor, Teach. Among the thousands of supportive groups honoring locally interred veterans through wreath sponsorships, WAA recently announced that special recognition has been given to Washington Crossing Wreaths for Veterans (PA0576) as one of the outstanding top groups, 2nd in Pennsylvania and 20th in the Nation.

   Since its founding in 2007, WAA has collaborated with hundreds of like-minded organizations, volunteers, and civic groups nationwide to remember and honor our nation’s veterans. Through its national 3-for-2 sponsorship group program, a third wreath is donated for every two wreaths sponsored thru Washington Crossing Wreaths for Veterans (WCWFV). In 2023, WCWFV was able to maximize efforts to honor 10,898 veterans laid to rest at WCNC. Thanks to local support, this group displayed Washington Crossing National Cemetery pride in our veterans at a national level.

  “I have long said it would be disingenuous for us as an organization whose mission is to Remember the fallen, Honor those who serve, and Teach the next generation the value of freedom if we do not support other like-minded programs doing just that in their communities,” said WAA Executive Director Karen Worcester.

 “The Sponsorship Group Program is a great way to support the programs doing good work in your area all year, while honoring as many veterans as possible!”

  Washington Crossing Wreaths for Veterans would like to thank all the individuals, private companies, and corporations for their generous donations to PA0576 last year. Whether it was a donation of a single dollar or ten thousand dollars, every donation counted. We would also like to thank the numerous WAA Sponsorship groups that help support Washington Crossing National Cemetery (WCNC) thru their fund-raising organizations.
