Bon Jovi-Signed Guitar Highlights Auction at VOICES June 8th Benefit

Dear Families and Friends,

          Just ten days to go until Voices of September 11th (VOICES) Always Remember Benefit headlined by President Clinton and Jon Bon Jovi! Tickets are limited so reserve now. Reservations can be made online at www.voicesofsept11.org or contact VOICES at (203) 966-3911.

          President Bill Clinton will be the keynote speaker, Jon Bon Jovi will perform and hundreds of guests will bid on over sixty silent auction items at VOICES Always Remember Benefit on June 8th at Pier Sixty in NYC. One lucky bidder will go home with a guitar autographed by Bon Jovi.

          Among the other items to be auctioned: a rare firefighter stamp poster that is no longer available to the public (shown in photograph);  a one-week stay at an elegant country farmhouse just minutes outside Florence, Italy;  golf vacations to Florida and North Carolina; a round of golf for three including lunch at Stanwich Country Club in Greenwich; a stay at the famous Carlyle Hotel in New York; a hand-made quilt by world-renowned quilter Betty Nielson; a LeRoy Neiman framed print of retired New York Ranger Rod Gilbert signed by Gilbert himself; tickets to Late Night with Jimmy Fallon; a week-long  vacation in Park City, Utah and a limited edition canvas “Flag of Honor” containing the names of all the 9/11 victims (shown in photo). Creator of the flag, John Micholetti, states its purpose is to forever remember, by name, those who perished and not let them ever be relegated to mere numbers.

          Proceeds from the June 8th  event will benefit VOICES 9/11 Living Memorial Project, a digital archive commemorating the lives lost on September 11, 2001 as well as stories of  survivors. VOICES recently announced a formal partnership with the National September 11 Memorial & Museum to support VOICES efforts to create the 9/11 Living Memorial Project. The extensive collection of photographs, written materials and personal keepsakes will become a core component of the exhibits at the Memorial Museum.

          Tickets for the event can be purchased online at www.voicesofsept11.org or by calling VOICES at 203-966-3911. For a list of exciting auction items visit our Auction Page.
