Twenty-five years ago today, our world changed forever. We made a promise to the bravery, selflessness, and sacrifice of the first responders and service members who ran toward danger on September 11th.
Keeping that promise requires action, and that is exactly why the 9/11 Fallen Hero Project was born.
Based in Acworth, Georgia, the non-profit organization works directly with police and fire departments to provide vital training, aid, and operational support that enhances their capabilities from within. Alongside departmental development, they design specialized training programs and deliver direct aid to active police, fire, and military personnel, as well as critical relief to injured first responders and their families.
The physical and emotional demands on our protectors did not end in 2001, and neither did the responsibility to equip and care for those still answering the call.
Airaoke started in an airplane hangar with a simple idea: trade traditional charity formats for a night that brings our community together through live music, camaraderie, and shared purpose. The heartbeat of this fundraising event has always belonged to the people pictured here, the dedicated team and advocates behind the 9/11 Fallen Hero Project.
To our first responders, our veterans, and the families who sacrifice alongside them: we see you, we honor you, and we stand with you today and every day.
