Dear Friend,
In 2001 we made a commitment to assist 9/11 families in any way we could.
For eight years we have tried to keep that commitment and have worked hard to keep you informed and help you through a very difficult time.
We have also listened to your concerns and believe that we have come up with a plan that will honor the memory of your loved ones by celebrating their lives through our Hearts and Hands Memorial.
By creating a permanent home for the United in Memory 9/11 Victims Memorial Quilt along with a Corridor of Memories and a 21,000 square foot Memorial Garden we hope to create a peaceful and serene location where visitors will be able to quietly remember their loved ones.
Our recording studio will enable you to add personal stories about your loved ones or listen to stories others have recorded.
Our educational programs will take a positive and proactive approach to instill a sense of goodness and decency in our youth while documenting all the events related to 9/11.
Our Corridor of Memories will be filled with photos supplied by you with the names of your loved ones displayed as requested by you. It will also honor all of those who have died as a result of 9/11
While we are receiving some governmental support we need your help in making this a reality.
Our goal is to have this completed in time for the 10th anniversary.
To that end we are hoping that you will become a benefactor by committing to support this effort over the next two years.
At this time we are asking for a small tax deductible contribution of whatever you can afford.
We are developing giving programs to get people involved at all levels in 2010 but for now we need to know we have your support.
We are working on plans to have the quilt displayed at Ground Zero over the weekend of September 11th and hope that you will take a few moments to experience the love that went into this 16,000 square foot memorial.
Most importantly we hope that you will spread the word about the Hearts and Hands Memorial to all your family and friends.
If you would like a copy of our brochure please respond to this e-mail with your mailing address.
