Dear Michael Barbour,
In the last couple of months, as we have worked to add a new exhibit to our museum, I have spent a considerable amount of time studying the history of WWII.
I wasn’t looking only for statistics. I was looking for the stories behind them. What I quickly discovered was that Americans understood winning the war would require far more than the courage of those serving on the battlefield. It would require an entire nation willing to sacrifice, serve and pull together for the greater good.

Sincerely, |

I hope you’ll take advantage of this amazing opportunity to double the impact of your sponsorship and support two causes that are meaningful to you. Together, let’s keep the mission to Remember, Honor and Teach going all year long. |
