The Story
September 11th, 2001 was a dark day for America. The deadliest terrorist attack in world history caused the loss of 2,996 lives, including 343 firefighters. Thousands more were injured and all lives in America were forever altered. Each year in September we honor those who lost their lives by exercising our freedom and showing the world that the United States of America will never be beaten. All proceeds from this event go to helping our firefighters stay safe and get the job done.
