STORY SUMMARY:

The National Park Foundation, the official charity of America's national parks, has unveiled a new public service campaign reminding all Americans of the heroes of United Flight 93 and September 11th, and encouraging their support in building a national memorial in their honor. On September 11, 2001, the 40 passengers and crew of United Flight 93 heroically fought back against terrorists, and in doing so, saved countless lives and our nation's capital. In their struggle, they lost their own lives as the plane plummeted into a field outside of Shanksville, PA.

A common field one day, a field of honor forever, the sacred ground of the Flight 93 National Memorial holds great meaning for all Americans. This national memorial, the only one dedicated to the events of 9/11, is an opportunity to honor all the heroes of that tragic day and provide a venue of remembrance, respect, and education for all visitors.

The Flight 93 National Memorial public service campaign consists of a 30sec video PSA and print materials. Each invites the public to help support the building of the Flight 93 National Memorial through mobile text donations, "Text MEMORIAL to 90999 to donate $10," or by contributing online at www.honorflight93.org.

With $10 million dollars left to raise, the memorial site is currently under construction with plans to dedicate the memorial on September 11, 2011 -- ten years after United Flight 93's fateful crash. The Flight 93 National Memorial will be the only national memorial dedicated to the events of 9/11.
