This Month
2020 marks our 15th year of hosting Gold Star families here at the Marines’ Memorial Club. For two days in February, parents who have lost a child in military service find mutual support and a safe place, where they feel truly understood, to share their memories and their grief. You can support our Gold Star families by attending the memorial service on 21 February, and by making a donation to this year’s Annual Gold Star Parents Honor and Remembrance event. Thank you. |
