NALP hosts annual Renewal & Remembrance

This year’s event featured various projects at the American Veterans Disabled for Life Memorial and Arlington National Cemetery.

Scorching temperatures did not daunt over 400 volunteers participating in the 28th Renewal and Remembrance event, presented by NALP and powered by Stanley Black & Decker, on July 15, 2024.

“This profession works in any condition, and they’ve more than proven it today,” says Britt Wood, CEO of NALP. “We’re going to have temperatures that are going to reach nearly 100 degrees, and it’s going to feel like 115. It’s just incredibly impressive that all these folks are willing to do it. No one is complaining. No one even batted an eye when we talked about that. That’s pretty impressive.”
