The Silver Star Gift Program was designed to organize and encourage community-giving efforts of organizations, businesses, and the general public during the holiday season to support Arkansas military and survivor families in need.
The Silver Star Program runs from mid-November to December 15th and consists of three program layers.
-
Silver Star Gift Registration (need-based sign-up for families to get assistance)
-
The Freedom Frosty 5k - Community event included in the Bentonville Run Series
-
Silver Star Giving Tree (Angel Tree for Military and Gold Star Family children)
This year our Donation Based Gift Wrapping has switched tactics. Our 2 day PopUP shop (DEC 15 & 22) will be at the Fayetteville Armory. Just text 479.530.8313 to reserve your time.
