Fallen Warrior Foundation Benefit Scheduled for May 19, 2012

HAVEN, KS, January 05, 2012 (Press-News.org) The Fallen Warrior Foundation has scheduled its first fundraiser to benefit survivng spouses and children of our fallen soldiers. The much-anticipated announcement was made just prior to the New Year and is an event that everyone should mark on his or her calendar. All proceeds from the event will be donated to the Fallen Warrior Foundation.

The Foundation itself is an offshoot of the American Hero T-Shirt company. The initial idea was to sell patriotic t-shirts commemorating or memorializing specific events in United States military history. The t-shirts were such a success that American Hero was able to launch the Fallen Warrior Foundation shortly thereafter. Thus far, the new foundation has been received positively and support is flowing in from across the country.

A benefit such as this is a great way to support the families of soldiers who have given the ultimate sacrifice. This inaugural event will be held at the American Legion Hall, 816 N. Water Street, Wichita, KS. The Foundation has already secured National Headlining Comedian Jeff Burghart for entertainment and expects to announce several other "special guests" in the upcoming days.

Tickets for the event are priced reasonably at $65 per couple. There are also numerous sponsor packages available, ranging from $1,000 to $5,000. Each package includes passes for the event and different levels of sponsorship advertising. Please visit the website for complete details regarding the event.
