About Blue Star Salute Foundation, Inc.

 Blue Star is an Alabama based 501(c)3 nonprofit founded in 2005 to help reinstate the use of the Blue Star Service banner to honor the soldiers, sailors, and airmen who were being deployed at that time to Iraq and Afghanistan. The mission quickly expanded to honor the noble service of our active-duty military, our veterans, and our fallen heroes. In addition to fundraising for our Veterans Assistance Fund and Wreaths Across America, we partner with the Governor’s Office, National Veterans Day Foundation, and the Alabama Department of Veterans Affairs among others on various initiatives supporting our military and veterans.  Additional information is available at www.bluestarsalute.org
