Wreaths Across America: Honoring Our Veterans - Commissioner Charles Gause No. 433 Chapter of Dadughters of 1812

Each year, Commissioner Charles Gause No. 433 Chapter of the National Society of the United States Daughters of 1812 passionately supports the Wreaths Across America initiative, a poignant and patriotic program dedicated to honoring and remembering our nation's veterans. This year, our chapter's efforts were particularly notable and heartfelt. Through a generous donation made during the 2-for-1 sale, the Daughters of 1812 facilitated the purchase of 90 wreaths. This significant contribution aligns with our ongoing mission to ensure that every grave at the Wilmington National Cemetery in Wilmington, North Carolina, is honored with a wreath.

Our chapter earned back five dollars for half of the total wreaths sponsored. So, with wreaths sponsored, the chapter would earn $5 times 45, which would be $225. For members who did not participate in the 2-for-1 sale, you have until November 27th to purchase additional wreaths to guarantee a wreath on all 5,126 graves at Wilmington National Cemetery. This program is among the best and easiest programs to help our chapter earn funds. So, ladies, “Keep on Buying Wreaths.”
