There are children in this country who grow up knowing exactly what freedom costs.

They are military children. They share their parent with a mission, a deployment, and sometimes a sacrifice that cannot be undone. April is the month we honor them and the families behind them.

This April, Wreaths Across America is asking families across the country to do more than honor the moment. We are asking you to help sustain it.

The TEACH Program Needs Your Support.

In 2022, retired educator and Gold Star Mother Cindy Tatum built something she wished had existed when her own son was alive. The TEACH program is a free, K-12 curriculum designed to pass down the stories of service, sacrifice, and courage to the next generation.

It is free to every family who downloads it. This curriculum can bridge the gap between the abstract concept of service and make it real, in tangible ways. And it only stays free because people like you choose to support it.

Supporting the TEACH program is simple. Visit our support page and choose whatever amount feels right for your family. Every dollar goes directly toward keeping this curriculum alive and growing for families across the country.

See What Your Support Makes Possible.

The TEACH program is not a worksheet. It is a living curriculum that grows each year, introducing new materials, stories, and ways for young people to connect with the values of service and character.

Here is what families can access right now, completely free:

• The Remember Me Service-Learning Project: A hands-on student project connecting young people to the stories of those who served. Built for all grades. Designed to start conversations that last.
• Past Stories, Current Lessons with Miss Cindy: A brand new show on Wreaths Across America Radio, premiering this week, on April 15th. Miss Cindy brings her Gold Star heart and 30 years of classroom experience to stories your whole family can enjoy listening to together.
• Sign up for the TEACHING TIMES Newsletter: A digital newsletter sharing new materials, project ideas, and resources delivered directly to your family throughout the year.

All of it free. All of it was built for families like yours. All of it sustained by people who believe these stories are worth keeping.

Your support this April honors military children, sustains a Gold Star Mother’s life’s work, and ensures the next generation of kids grows up knowing the names and the stories they were meant to remember.

That is worth sharing with every family you know. It’s that important.
