Welcome to the John Alexander Chapter's Wreaths Across America Page. We are a Daughters of the American Revolution chapter committed to serving veterans both here at home in Northern Virginia and across the country.

This year, we are sponsoring wreaths at two national cemeteries where our chapter members have personal ties - Alexandria National Cemetery and Tahoma National Cemetery. 

Please help us honor and remember as many fallen heroes as possible by sponsoring remembrance wreaths, volunteering on Wreaths Day, or inviting your family and friends to attend with you.

To select the cemetery you would like to support, please click the Red Sponsor Wreaths button, indicate the number of wreaths you would like to sponsor, and under Location to Support, click on the drop down arrow to select the preferred cemetery to support.
