APPLETON, WI (WTAQ-WLUK) — A month-long program to honor of our fallen heroes is underway across Wisconsin.
“Memorial Day on Main” is a partnership of several veterans groups and local businesses to refocus the attention of this day of remembrance on the sacrifices of the brave men and women who died serving our nation.
Each participating business will receive a Memorial Day on Main Business Kit which includes a poster symbolizing their support, a donation of enough Hero Cards for a local classroom which includes the business’s logo in the pack, and a sponsor listing on the Memorial Day on Main webpage. By proudly displaying these materials, businesses will not only honor our fallen heroes but also inspire others to do the same.
The Wisconsin Veterans Chamber of Commerce (WVCC), the Grateful Nation Project, New North, Fox Cities Chamber, Appleton Downtown Inc., and the Fox Valley Veterans Council, partnered for this project.
The WVCC believes businesses have a significant role to play in shaping their communities. Throughout the month of May, which also coincides with Military Appreciation Month, local businesses are invited to join “Memorial Day on Main.”
Participating businesses will receive a special kit containing:
- A commemorative poster signifying their support for the initiative.
- A donation of Hero Cards for a local classroom, featuring the business’s logo.
- A listing on the dedicated “Memorial Day on Main” webpage.
“Memorial Day on Main” offers various sponsorship levels, allowing businesses of all sizes to contribute. Sponsorships range from $100 to $15,000.
