Greetings Hometown Heroes,
This summer will soon wrap up with a significant milestone - the 10th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks on our freedom and way of life. You all know our passion for supporting our community and nation, along with those who daily sacrifice to make it a safer, healthier and positive place to live and prosper.
We are proud to announce a special partnership, as we look to commemorate this anniversary. Our friends and partners at Coins of America have produced a number of powerful, inspiring and respectful commemorative items with a portion of the proceeds being donated to Hometown Heroes. These items include an exclusive product that allows you to publish your own personal story of 9/11 and how you felt on that day and how you were impacted.
I personally invite you to visit the Hometown Heroes page on the coins of America website by visiting this link:

All purchases will be attributed to our relationship and the funds will be designated toward our organization.
We thank you for considering this unique opportunity and wish you all the best in the rest of 2011.
