LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- Brownsboro Hardware and Paint is encouraging people to donate to campaign that honors U.S. military veterans.
"Wreaths Across America" places wreaths at national cemeteries, including Zachary Taylor Cemetery in Louisville. With just more than a week away, there are almost 6,000 wreaths that have not been sponsored.
"We are not even halfway to our goal," Brownsboro Hardware and Paint posted. "We really need you this time."
In 2023, almost 9,000 wreaths were placed on the gravesites of servicemembers. The goal this year is to raise enough money for each of the 11,000 graves at Zachary Taylor Cemetery.
You can sponsor a wreath for $17 and if you want that wreath to go on a specific veteran's grave, that can be specified. Wreaths can be purchased on their website or by going to Brownsboro Hardware and Paint.
The wreaths will be laid on the graves Dec. 14.
