HWC president Lisa Lambardozzi accepts donation from the Herndon Homes Tour Commitee

“The Herndon Women’s Club was proud to donate $3,000 to Luke’s Wings to support their mission of reuniting wounded, ill and injured service members with their loved ones during recovery. Funds raised at the 59th Fall Fashion Show helped to provide five flights for service members across the country and helped a mother see their son walk for the first time, a wounded warrior to spend her first Christmas with her husband and a family to be reunited after their loved one was injured in combat.”
Wreaths Across America 2017
12/16/17 Chestnut Grove Cemetery
Herndon Woman's Club members were proud to Honor all Veterans at the Wreaths Across America National Day of Remembrance Ceremony on December 16 at Chestnut Grove Cemetery. There was a chill in the air, but spirits were bright as people arrived to place a wreath on a veteran's grave (790 veterans) and Thank them for their service after a brief ceremony. Don't forget to thank a veteran whenever you have the opportunity. For those who donated money for wreaths, who participated in helping throughout the year - in all kinds of weather, to prepare for the ceremony and in so many ways, a Thank You goes out to ALL.
