GNBVT- SkillsUSA Is Proud to Support Wreaths Across America
SkillsUSA Volunteers will join volunteers and participating locations across the country to Remember, Honor and Teach
Columbia Falls, MAINE, and Bourne, Massachusetts— December 16, 2023
The Greater New Bedford Regional Voc-Tech SkillsUSA Chapter was chosen to support Wreaths Across America’s participating location in Bourne, Massachusetts as part of the national organization’s Group Sponsorship Program. This is the fourth year that Greater New Bedford students will participate in the national program whose mission is to Remember the Fallen, Honor those who served, and Teach the next generation the value of freedom.
The goal for GNB-SkillsUSA is to support efforts that help unify our community and celebrate our freedom by thanking the thousands of veterans laid to rest at Bourne National Cemetery with the placement of a live, balsam veteran’s wreath this December.
“We are forever grateful to all the volunteers and groups who dedicate their time and effort nationwide to fulfilling this year-long mission,” said Karen Worcester, executive director, Wreaths Across America. “These individuals and their communities know the value of remembering the fallen, honoring those who currently serve and teaching the next generation about the sacrifices made for our freedom every day, and with their continued support, Wreaths Across America continues to grow.”
Those interested in volunteering for Wreaths Across America or sponsoring a wreath to support GNB-SkillsUSA are invited to visit www.wreathsacrossamerica.org/MA0148Pto learn more.
