PMTA Wins 2024 Wreaths Across America Award and Competitions Kicks Off for 2025!

PMTA Wins 2024 Wreaths Across America Award and Competitions Kicks Off for 2025!

May is Military Appreciation Month – sponsor a wreath in honor of our fallen soldiers.

Last year, PMTA members sponsored 507 wreaths total, which put PMTA in the second-place slot, tied with the New Jersey Motor Truck Association, in the contest between State Trucking Associations. 

The annual Wreaths Across America Truckloads of Remembrance program, provides PMTA with $5 for each $17 veteran's wreath sponsorship made through the association. Thirty-four state trucking associations participated in the program last year.  

On May 6, 2025, Wreaths Across America announced that PMTA received the 2024 State Trucking Association Innovation Award for its creative fundraising and promotion related to our chapter competition and campaign. In addition, Pennsylvania's TAEC region was Wreaths Across America's State Trucking Association Regional Champion. 

We know we can do even better this year... But we need your help!

How it works:

All of the funds donated will sponsor wreaths to be placed on veterans' headstones at national military cemeteries on National Wreaths Across America Day, December 13, 2025.  

Last year's competition was fierce. The South Central and Lehigh Chapters put up a good fight, but Philadelphia / Delaware Valley came out on top. To get you started this year, sponsor a wreath for each veteran in your organization, or perhaps a family member. Let's see which Chapter prevails this year!

If you'd like to sponsor a wreath, give through PMTA's link!
