Local Effort Underway to Support Wreaths Across America

Staff Report From Savannah CEO

Monday, November 18th, 2019

The team at Howard Family Dental in Hinesville is working hard to ensure that all veterans honored at the Fort Stewart Warriors Walk in Hinesville, Ga. receive a live, balsam fir wreath on National Wreaths Across America Day this December 14.
 
This year, the Wreaths for Warriors Walk at Fort Stewart will be held simultaneously to other ceremonies across the country at more than 1,500 locations at noon on December 14. The goal: to honor every veteran remembered at the Fort Stewart Warriors Walk with a wreath and spread patriotism and commemoration for the ultimate sacrifices they made for our country.
 
From now until December 2, Howard Family Dental will sell wreath sponsorships online and at the Hinesville location to help sponsor the 500 wreaths needed for the ceremony at the Fort Stewart Warriors Walk. Each wreath sponsorship costs $15, with $5 going back to the Howard Family Dental Foundation, which helps fund the Howard Hand in Hand program at St. Joseph’s/Candler. Howard Hand in Hand is a free program that helps provide support, education and guidance to children and teens with a family member facing a life-threatening illness.
