Every December, Wreaths Across America places wreaths on the graves at Arlington National Cemetery and other veterans cemeteries. Thousands of volunteers come out to help and show respect to veterans and those who made the ultimate sacrifice for their country. Jon Scott was joined on "Fox Report" Sunday by Bre Kingsbury, who handles corporate business development and community relations for Wreaths Across America. With National Wreaths Across America Day on December 15 fast approaching, Kingsbury said they are hoping for more donors and volunteers to step forward. Kingsbury explained that the wreaths are $15 each and you can sponsor veterans' wreaths at the organization's website.

Went and ordered some as soon as I saw the post.
I’ll be riding motorcycle escort that day.
thanks.
I help lead a Trail Life USA troop. We participate every year at a local cemetery.
They also have a fundraiser deal where the selling organization gets to keep some of the proceeds.
Excellent.
Wreaths Across America is a major event every year at the Fort Leavenworth Cemetery and the nearby VA National Cemetery. In recent years, the organizers have had problems ensuring that every volunteer, especially the kids, have been able to lay at least one wreath. It is an all hands on deck event.
We donate a couple wreaths every year.
