Honoring Memorial Day

May 26, 2017

As friends and family gather this Memorial Day, Dollar General joins them in recognizing our military communities and their sacrifices as they serve our country.

Dollar General is proud to support the military community through programs such as Paychecks for Patriots, which supports service members as they transition to civilian life by finding meaningful employment opportunities, the company’s military employee resource group, and showing support with exclusive military discounts.

If you’re looking for ways to participate on Memorial Day, here are a few local and national opportunities:
  • Attend or walk in a Memorial Day parade
  • Place a flag on the grave of a fallen soldier
  • Reach out to a Gold Star family member
  • Donate or volunteer for an organization that supports families of fallen soldiers
  • Pause for the National Moment of Remembrance at 3 p.m. local time.
Whether customers are spending time at a Memorial Day parade, backyard barbecue or quality time with family, Dollar General has all the necessary items to have an affordable holiday weekend.
