WHAT IS A VOLUNTEER-LED EVENT?
Each year, #TheHonorProject mobilizes volunteers at a select number of participating cemeteries across the country. We know there are fallen heroes resting outside of those locations who also deserve to be honored on Memorial Day weekend. Volunteer-led events allow local Spartans who cannot make it to a TMF-sponsored event to gather friends and family and honor local fallen heroes. Like their TMF-sponsored counterparts, all volunteer-led events take place on Memorial Day weekend.
WHAT TO EXPECT AT A VOLUNTEER-LED #THEHONORPROJECT EVENT
Volunteer-led Memorial Day events are not official TMF-sponsored events and will be smaller in nature, led by local Spartans on the ground. Like their TMF-sponsored counterparts, these events allow volunteers to lay hand-crafted commemorative tokens at interment locations of fallen heroes. If you decide to host a volunteer-led event on Memorial Day weekend, TMF staff will help you set up the registration process for volunteers and will ship commemorative tokens to help you properly honor fallen heroes.
