Organic Remedies is a proud corporate sponsor for Wreaths Across America. Wreaths Across America is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization founded to continue and expand the annual wreath- laying ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery begun by Maine businessman Morrill Worcester in 1992.
The organization’s mission – Remember, Honor, Teach – is carried out in part each year by coordinating wreath-laying ceremonies in December at Arlington, as well as at thousands of veterans’ cemeteries and other locations in all 50 states and beyond.
Organic Remedies is supporting Indiantown Gap National Cemetery by encouraging individuals and organizations to sponsor a wreath(s) for the more than 45,000 service members laid to rest at Indiantown Gap National Cemetery. These wreaths are completely funded by private, personal, or corporate donations.
Each $17 wreath sponsored in 2023 will be placed by a volunteer on Saturday, December 16. Together, WAA and IGNC are committed to making sure that every veteran interred at IGNC, is Remembered, with or without a wreath.
If you have a loved one buried at IGNC and wish for them to receive a wreath this year, you are strongly encouraged to sponsor Grave Specific wreaths. There are several ways to sponsor a wreath.

Wreath Sponsorship
Organic Remedies (PA0568) |166729|
Did you know that Wreaths Across America now offers recurring sponsorships? You can select the occurrence and cancel or pause anytime! Register now by completing this form! (https://tinyurl.com/n735zrbr)
What does it mean to sponsor a wreath? It means you are supporting a yearlong mission to Remember the fallen, Honor those that serve and Teach the next generation the value of freedom. Your sponsorship will support the new and existing programs developed to share the mission. And, it will place a wreath to honor an American hero at one of more than 4,400 participating locations this year on National Wreaths Across America Day – a day set aside to lay gathers as Americans with the same goal.
We can’t do that without your support, though. Your sponsorship will ensure that a wreath is hand-crafted of all-American balsam and hand-tied with a red velvet bow here in Columbia Falls, Maine. It will then be sent to one of our participating locations, where a volunteer will place it on the marker of a hero. That volunteer will then “say their name” to ensure that the legacy of duty, service and sacrifice is never forgotten.
So, what does it mean to sponsor a wreath? It means you have the opportunity to join a grateful nation in saying “thank you” to those who stepped up to serve.
*Please Note: Specific locations designated as "ceremonial-only" accept a limited number of sponsorships. Any additional sponsorships received beyond those used for the ceremony will be distributed to other locations.
