For Immediate National Release Tonya Evans CEO/Founder American Fallen Warrior Memorial Foundation Phone: 1-855-647-3411 ex 11 Fax: 1-866-302-3690 Email: info@afwmf.org Web site: www.afwmf.org Introducing the American Fallen Warrior Memorial Foundation to be built in Kansas. Our mission to build the largest Fallen Warrior Memorial in US history and the introduction of the "IGaveMyCoins" campaign. Lawrence, Kansas - 4/4/2011 - The AFWMF was founded in 2011 with the goal of building a Memorial to honor our Fallen Warriors from the Gulf War to present date. The Memorial will be built in Kansas. The secondary goal of AFWMF is educating America’s youth about the sacrifices being made for our freedoms. The goals of the AFWMF will be accomplished with the help of Patriotic Americans joining forces to make sure this memorial is completed and that our Fallen Warriors have a suitable and sacred place of remembrance and honor. The AFWMF developed the “igavemycoins” campaign to make sure that everyone has the opportunity to contribute to the memorial by giving what he or she can afford. Every coin counts when building a memorial of this magnitude. The “igavemycoins” campaign symbolizes the challenge coin and reminds us of the challenge we have ahead and of the commitment made to the families of our Fallen Warriors. Our duty as a Nation is to provide hope, healing and to preserve their legacies. The mission of the American Fallen Warrior Memorial Foundation is to honor, preserve and protect the legacies of all Fallen Warriors who have given their lives in the Gulf War, Operations Desert Storm, Operation Desert Shield, Operation Iraqi Freedom, Operation Enduring Freedom and all peripheral operations in the war on Terror. We will do this by building a memorial that will contain bronze plaques displaying the faces of every serviceman or woman who has given his or her life in the service of defending and protecting our country, including PTSD/Suicides from the Gulf War to the present. Our secondary mission is to educate the children of a Grateful Nation about the sacrifices being made to protect our freedoms. Educating our youth is essential to ensuring their sacrifice will not be forgotten. We believe that we must preserve the legacies of these brave men and women and teach the value of remembering their sacrifices. The AFWMF has sent out 4 proposals for aquisition of land (Topeka, Lawrence, Manhatten and KC, Kansas) and will be meeting with the cities in the Kansas area that have expressed a serious interest in having the AFWM in or around their city. The AFWMF is asking for volunteers, corporate sponsors and for schools and organizations that would like to participate in the "IGaveMyCoins" campaign. The AFWMF will be participating in the Annual Run for the Wall and will be riding to DC in honor of Gold Star Families to spread the word about the Foundation and our mission. To learn more about the AFWMF, see the design for the memorial and visit our Fallen Warrior Gallery please visit www.afwmf.org or www.igavemycoins.com, for additional information, please email us at info@AFWMF.org. The AFWMF is a non-profit organization formed in 2011 and is dedicated to honoring our Fallen Warriors and to educating the students of a Grateful Nation about the sacrifices being made for our freedoms. ### Tonya M Evans 785-749-2337 CEO, Founder www.AFWMF.org "Honoring our Fallen Warriors and Celebrating their lives" www.igavemycoins.com "rising to the CHALLENGE one COIN at a time" Visit us on FB http://www.facebook.com/AFWMF www.RFTW.org May 18-27, 2011 We will ride ALL THE WAY on behalf of all Gold Star Families this year.
