Dear Friends and Family:

I am helping The Michigan WWII Legacy Memorial build the state’s official tribute to its efforts during WWII. Click http://www.michiganww2memorial.org/ to learn more. It’s a great project and I need your help to make it reality. The memorial is working with Hour Detroit magazine on a fund raising campaign called the GIVE Detroit Challenge. Because this campaign is structured as a contest with cash prizes based on fund raising accomplishments, there has never been a better time to make your money work harder for us.

We’ve made it easy to donate, just click here: http://bit.ly/MW2LM_Give_Detroit

Or you can text the word ww2 to the phone number 31996

You can donate as little as $10. Every dollar raised not only helps build the memorial, but also puts us closer to the goal of securing the added Give Detroit Challenge cash prizes.

Also, please forward this email to your friends, family or anyone you thing would be interested in supporting this cause.

Thank you.
