Overview
From its website
Heroes Way provides a platform to support loved ones and their local communities after a service member is lost in combat by helping raise proceeds through donations and fundraisers to erect highway memorial signs near honorees’ hometowns. The program notes that memorial sign locations expanded under Missouri legislation and that the Missouri Department of Transportation collects fees for erection and maintenance; Heroes Way works with local communities to raise the necessary funds so families are not burdened by memorial costs.
