Honoring Our Heroes

Our Mission

HONOR our Fallen Heroes, who raised their hand to serve, 

and made the ultimate sacrifice after answering our nation’s call.

SUPPORT the families of our Fallen Heroes for their enduring sacrifice.

ENGAGE our communities in remembering those who gave their all for our freedoms.

We are forever grateful and committed to their memory.

We Honor Our Fallen Heroes by displaying their photos and banners at various events and activites though the areas in WA, ID,and OR as our fallen are "NEVER FORGOTTEN !"

Thanks to the support of community partners, each year we’re able to offer a limited number of American-made 20’ in-ground flagpoles for surviving families. To request, your hero must meet the criteria for a banner, and you must own your home and plan to stay. Requests are considered in the order they’re received, and there is a lifetime limit of one flagpole per Fallen Hero.

Here you can read and hear about our garden for families.

It matters that they took an oath to defend America, placing our security above their own. Illuminating Courage represents them all, holding tight to those who allow it to stand tall. ***** We've made every effort to ensure that all names are included, and that ranks
