Community Building Events

The Massachusetts Military Heroes Fund is proud to offer community support to the families of the fallen through both public and private events.  Public events bring our community together in acts of volunteer service showcasing our support for our military and their families.  Private events are social gatherings designed to bring bereaved families together in an atmosphere of fun and mutual support.  Family members wishing to access the private events should contact us at 617-482-0444.

Memorial Day Flag Garden on Boston Common

Our signature community building event!  We and hundreds of volunteers create a majestic garden of flags on Boston Common for Memorial Day weekend.  Each of the 37,000+ flags we plant at the Soldiers and Sailors Monument will represent every brave Massachusetts service member who gave his or her life defending our country since the Revolutionary War. The completed garden is a breathtaking tribute to the true meaning of Memorial Day and a powerful message of community support to the families of these fallen heroes that their sacrifices will never be forgotten.

 

9-11 Care Package Day of Service

9/11 Service Project to Support Our Troops & Families

9/11 Service Project to Support Our Troops & Families

Each September, the Massachusetts Military Heroes fund coordinates a care package service project to support active duty service members and veterans in need, as well as a pledge drive to support local bereaved military families.  This is a wonderful opportunity to give back to our community in a positive way on September 11th; now a National Day of Service and Remembrance. Activities include building care packages for our military service members overseas, care packages for veterans in need at home in Massachusetts, writing letters of support to our troops, and a pledge drive for the families supported by the Massachusetts Military Heroes Fund.
