Flags For Our Heroes

Flags for our Heroes 2026
The Rotary Club of Gaithersburg is proud to “Unite for Good” with local youth organizations and the City of Gaithersburg to present Flags for Our Heroes 2026. This is your opportunity to honor your personal hero—someone who has made a lasting difference in your life. It may be a member of the military, police, fire department, or another first responder who puts their life on the line for us every day. It could also be a family member, doctor, teacher, coach, mentor, community leader, or anyone whose courage, care, or commitment has inspired you.

From the evening of May 22 through noon on May 25, 750 American flags will stand proudly in Bohrer Park, Gaithersburg each one bearing the name of a sponsor and the hero they are honoring—a powerful and visible tribute to the people who matter most. Flag sponsorships provide funding for the Gaithersburg Rotary Foundation to support charitable organizations in Montgomery County, around the USA and worldwide.
