A salute to all those who have helped us in so many ways.
(We will be updating this often because it is a lengthy list. If you do not see your name but know it belongs here, please know we are not done.)
Veterans Health Services
BEST LOGISTICS
We can’t say thank you enough for the trips you’ve taken our troops on! It makes my heart stop when I see BEST TRUCKING pull up to pick up our trees and troops.
COLUMBIA FOREST PRODUCTS
Since the very first memento was made, Columbia has been a major supporter of our mission. The use of their product turned a photo of a hero into a keepsake.
WALGREENS
The Walgreens in Kernersville, NC has been the biggest contributor to this mission. If it was not for the special pricing of the photos from them, thousands of veterans would never have been remembered in this unique way.
THE REWRITTEN STORY FOUNDATION
There will never be enough thanks to Tracy Story for his donation of a 16’ trailer to our mission. It created a way for us to take larger tributes across the country. His foundation “sees a need and fills it“. What a beautiful mantra.
LOWE’S HOME IMPROVEMENT
LOWE’S in multiple locations have blessed our mission over the years with a myriad of items from a grill from Wake Forest, to wood from Roanoke Rapids, paint from Kernersville, to name just a few answered prayers.
VICKERMAN TREE COMPANY
After our first purchase of six trees from Vickerman, we were hooked. Since then they have donated almost 20 trees which are tje perfect place to honor a hero.
