PROCEEDS DONATED
Our passion and commitment to true HEROES inspired ourΒ 2ndΒ 9/11 tribute. This one'sΒ to show our love, respect and gratitude for those who sacrificed ALL and those still fighting their battles so that others may live.
9/11 hits very home for us. Personally joining the NYPD just before 9/11 andΒ spending time at ground zero we knew it would be bad. We coughed out strange particles from our irritated lungs. We blew our noses to into tissues that turned black. We joked at the paper masks they gave us.Β
βΒ We were told the air was safe down there and it wasnβt, But you know what, that doesnβt matter. Because we would have went in anyway. Because thatβs what we do. Itβs not a job for us. Itβs a calling.β -NYPD Det. Luis Alvares
241 NYPDΒ deaths are directly related to 9/11 illness.
