Truist Partners With Bennett to Support Wreaths Across America
MCDONOUGH, GA (October 21, 2022) – The Bennett Family of Companies is excited to partner with the Truist Financial Corporation (Truist) for this year’s fundraising efforts for Wreaths Across America, an organization whose primary objective honors deceased veterans during the Christmas season.
Entering its sixth year with Wreaths Across America, Bennett’s annual goal is to generate funds to ensure every gravesite at Andersonville National Cemetery has a wreath to honor fallen heroes. For the first time last year, Bennett secured over 20,300 wreaths to meet its goal of covering every gravesite with a tribute wreath during the Christmas holiday.
Boasting numerous veteran employees, drivers and agents, Bennett has proudly supported Wreaths Across America with trucking assistance as well. Throughout December, Bennett employees gather and deliver wreaths for National Wreaths Across America Day. The wreaths are transported from Columbia Falls, Maine to Andersonville National Cemetery in Andersonville, Georgia.
To work towards surpassing this year’s goal, Bennett and Truist cobranded a 53 foot semi-trailer dedicated to Wreaths Across America. The trailer will travel the Southeast as part of Bennett’s fleet to spread awareness about Wreaths Across America and to encourage individuals to contribute to its mission.
