Wreaths Across America
Arkansas Run for the Fallen is very proud to participate in Wreaths across America, a nationwide effort to honor veterans by placing a wreath on their headstone each December. For each wreath sponsored through our page, Wreaths Across America will make a donation back to Arkansas Run for the Fallen to help honor Arkansas Fallen Heroes and support the families of Arkansas fallen service members.

9th Annual Arkansas Run for the Fallen
This year's 9th Annual Arkansas Run for the Fallen has been cancelled. We will continue to honor our fallen heroes and their families through the flag field and other ways throughout the year and look forward to hosting our 10th Annual Run in 2021.
Traveling Memorial
The Arkansas Run for the Fallen Traveling Memorial has been displayed across the state of Arkansas over the past few years in many communities. The memorial consists of a 3' x 5' flag and placard with a short biography for each Arkansas service member who has died while serving since September 11, 2001. People are able to walk among the flags and read the biographies of the heroes that are honored. To learn more about memorial requirements and scheduled events please click here.
The mission of Arkansas Run for the Fallen is to raise awareness for the native Arkansas military service members who have died while serving on active duty since September 11, 2001. The purpose is also to provide support, hope and healing to families grieving the death of a loved one in military service regardless of relationship or circumstance of death.
