On Gold Star Mother’s and Family’s Day, we remember and honor the surviving families of our nation’s fallen service members.

Gold Star Mothers and Families have been inextricably linked to the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier since its inception in 1921 after World War I. Especially for the relatives of service members whose remains were never found or identified, the Tomb has served as a powerful symbol in place of a grave where they can grieve.

Learn more about the connections between the Gold Star Mothers and the Tomb by exploring our digital publication, “A Tomb in the Heart of the Nation: The Origins and Creation of the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.”

Gold Star Mothers appear throughout this publication—they were key players in the Tomb’s creation. A sidebar (essay) devoted specifically to their story can be found on page 439. Access the digital publication here: https://www.arlingtoncemetery.mil/Portals/0/Docs/A-Tomb-in-the-Heart-of-the-Nation.pdf.

🚨 **CAN YOU CHECK YOUR CLOSETS FOR US?** 🚨

We have a couple of **CRITICAL clothing needs**, and we’re asking our community to help us fill these racks FAST!

👖 **Boys Pants — Sizes 6–10**
🎀 **Girls Clothing — Size 24 Months — ALL clothing!**

Before you buy anything, **check your closets, dressers, and bins of clothes your kids have outgrown!** You might already have exactly what we need.

Then **ASK ONE MORE PERSON!** ❤️
🏡 Ask a neighbor
👯 Text a friend
👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Ask family members
📱 Share this post with other parents

If enough people check just ONE closet, we can get these sizes back on our racks quickly!

📦 **IMPORTANT WHEN DROPPING OFF:**
Please mark the bag or box **“CRITICAL”** and **hand it directly to a volunteer**. These items need to go **straight to the shopping floor** and should NOT be placed with our regular donations.

🛒 We’re also including our **Amazon Wish List** for anyone who would rather send items directly to us. https://a.co/0fSk8Hue

These sizes are going out faster than they are coming in. **Help us fill those racks for the kids who need them!** 💙
