GOLD STAR MOTHERS MARYLAND CHAPTER

We are mothers whose children died while in military service, or died as a result of that service, or are missing in action. We honor our children’s memories by serving others and healing together. Our members volunteer many hours at the VA medical centers, Walter Reed National Military Medical Center Bethesda (WRNMMC), the USO, and several other veterans service and community organizations. Our Chapter frequently partners with other organizations that support our veterans and active duty service members and their families. We also actively participate as guests and speakers in many patriotic events in our communities throughout the year. In all of these activities, we heal together while helping others.

Financial gifts from individuals and organizations to our Chapter are welcomed and are used to continue these activities to help defray the costs of running our small organization. Our major fundraising event is our annual Crab Feast and Bull Roast, usually held in September.
