‘Flag a Friend’ is a fun way to help raise money for Wreaths Across America
BRYAN, Texas (KBTX) – If you want to honor a veteran and participate in a unique and fun fundraiser, you may want to consider participating in Wreaths Across America’s ‘Flag a Friend’ campaign.
“It’s a patriotic twist to putting pink flamingos in someone’s yard for their birthday,” said Ellen Fuller. “With this, you can do good twice! You can Flag a Friend and sponsor a wreath.”
For only a $17 donation, you can have Wreaths Across America place 12 American flags in someone’s yard and surprise them with a patriotic display of support along with a yard sign that says “In Support of Veterans I’ve Been Flagged.”
The money will go to help sponsor wreaths that then be placed on the grave of a veteran.
After someone has been flagged, the flags will be removed by volunteers the following day.
This year, more than 3,700 cemeteries will participate in National Wreaths Across America Day – Saturday, Dec. 16, 2023.
