Welcome to the Heart of Columbia's Wreaths Across America Page.
On December 14, 2024 (See location pages for ceremony and wreath placement details), Heart of Columbia will be helping Fort Jackson to Remember and Honor our veterans by laying Remembrance wreaths on the graves of our country's fallen heroes. We provide singing at this event each year. This year it will be even more special as we have been challenged like so many throughout the pandemic. We look forward to sharing our voices with you!
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.
Thank you so much for supporting the Heart of Columbia Chorus and Wreaths Across America!
