Organized with the Alaska Native Sisterhood Camp 2 Juneau, this ongoing volunteer effort began in 2021 and enters its fifth year of stewardship.

With roughly 500 resting places, contributions of any amount are appreciated, and flags will be placed first in the Native section, where work traditionally begins.
