A New Tradition at TNi – Wreaths Across America

In honor of Veterans Day November 11th, Tri-National designed and released RED Friday Military Support shirts for employee and driver purchase. For each shirt bought, Tri-National matched the donation with all proceeds going to Wreaths Across America to lay wreaths on each servicemember headstone at military cemeteries across the country. Within Tri-National, shirt sales raised enough funds to donate over 370 wreaths to Wreaths Across America. In addition, TeamTNi had 20 employees and their family members volunteer to place wreaths and on veterans’ graves at St. Charles Memorial Gardens near our St. Louis headquarters.

2022 has been the first year Tri-National has supported Wreaths Across America, but it will not be the last! We look forward to raising more money for wreaths and volunteering for years to come. We encouraged family members of all ages to join the effort, to remember, honor and teach.

Wreaths Across America is a not-for-profit organization that was founded in 2007, though their mission began years before. Their mission is to “Remember. Honor. Teach.” Wreaths Across America coordinates wreath laying in veteran cemeteries in all fifty states on the third Saturday in December each year. It is carried out by coordinating wreath-laying ceremonies at Arlington National Cemetery, as well as at over 3,400 locations in all 50 US states, at sea and abroad.
