Fellow
American,
It's Gary
Sinise here.
You may
know me from my roles in movies like Apollo 13 and The Green Mile
or the CBS television series CSI NY- but it was in 1994 and
playing the role of Lt. Dan in Forrest Gump that my life changed
and inspired my enduring connection to our defenders, veterans,
and first responders.
This
year, I'm honored to again serve as an Honorary Grand Marshal for
the National Memorial Day Parade in Washington, D.C.
The
National Memorial Day Parade is an event like no other …
and this year, as we mark the 80th anniversary of the D-Day
invasion, the American Veterans Center is bringing the Parade
BACK in full force, with 5,000+ participants marching down
Constitution Avenue before a crowd of 250,000+ in-person, as well
as a T.V. broadcast that reaches 100 million households around
the country.
Fellow
American, the National Memorial Day Parade is PRIMARILY FUNDED by
private contributions, including from generous Americans like
you. Will you help chip in today to help support the Parade with
a gift of $25, $50, $75, $150, or more?

the National Memorial Day Parade
The
National Memorial Day Parade costs a fraction of other major
public events to put on each year. In fact, the entire parade
costs about as much as just THREE balloons in the Macy's
Thanksgiving Day Parade or TWO floats in the Rose Bowl Parade!
That
means that every dollar that's contributed by a generous American
like you makes a difference for this important event.
Your
support of the American Veterans Center not only helps the
Parade, but also supports great programs like:
Recording hundreds of oral histories of veterans from World War
II to today before we lose these stories forever.
Holding our National Youth Summit which allows young students a
chance to hear firsthand from veterans from WWII, Korea, and
Vietnam.
Producing veteran-focused T.V. documentaries and specials that
remind Americans of the price of our freedom.
Please
join me in support of the National Memorial Day Parade with a
gift of $25, $50, $75, $150, $250, $500, or more right now.
If you've
been looking for an opportunity to give back to those who have
given so much for our freedom, this is one of the best ways you
could possibly do it.
And for a
special group of veterans, this might be one of the last chances
we get.
You see,
with each year that goes by, we lose more and more of our World
War II veterans, and for the few we have remaining, traveling to
Washington, D.C. for the parade is difficult.
I am
honored to say that we will have several World War II veterans
with us for this year's parade... but I don't know how many more
years we'll have that precious opportunity.
So this
year, as we mark the 80th anniversary of the D-Day invasion and
what might be the last chance these great men have to gather
together, I encourage you to help us honor them while we still
have them with us.
And no
matter how much you can give to this important cause, I want to
ask something additional of you.
On
Memorial Day - this year and every year - please join me in
honoring those who made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedoms.
Come to
the National Memorial Day Parade in D.C. Visit a local veterans'
cemetery. Send a note to a family of the fallen. Or simply take a
quiet moment to think about the men and women who gave their
lives to defend OUR country.

I believe
that while we can never do enough to express our gratitude to our
defenders, veterans, and first responders, we can always do a
little more.
Fellow
American, thank you for your support of America's heroes, and
please - if you're able, make a gift to help fund the National
Memorial Day Parade right now.
Sincerely,
Gary
Sinise
