All the donations go toward replacing the damaged or weathered flags.
To revive and reroot the honored tradition of placing an American Flag at every headstone of Fort Snelling National Cemetery on Memorial Day by organizing the fundraising, volunteers, and flags needed to achieve the massive annual tradition.
FFFS started with a meager three thousand little American flags that hardly stood taller than the beautiful grass of the cemetery grounds. But thanks to the reach of social media and the support of the news media, matched with the effort of masses of Minnesotans, we keep passing our growth milestones at incredible speed!
Within 3 years, our organization went from placing a few thousand little flags, to 10,000 of the 30″ standard size staffs, then onto 50,000 and finally, yes finally we covered the cemetery grounds with nearly 200,000 flags! And we intend to do the same every year for generations to come, but with the new sustainable option of the retractable flags.

WHAT IS A
Flag Placement Requests provide a virtual connection between the heroes laid to rest at Fort Snelling and the people who cannot personally visit the cemetery. Our volunteers, Flag Runners, will venture out to locate the site from each request, place an American Flag, take a photo, and share the image on our website and Facebook feed so you can see and share the memorial of your loved one on Memorial Day.
