Hero Bracelets

One of my favorite companies- HeroBracelets.org makes copper bracelets in remembrance of those serving, those who have served, and those who have made the ultimate sacrifice. They also donate some of their proceeds to the Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund so it's an amazing cause. I received this e-mail from the founder and wanted to pass it on to our families.

A very gracious donor has offered to purchase Memorial HeroBracelets for the first 100 families that respond will receive a coupon code for $14.50. This will cover the cost of the Memorial HeroBracelet and shipping to anywhere in the Continental US.

This offer really moved us here at HeroBracelets. We’re more than happy to make this work. We do ask though, that recipients of these bracelets ONLY be families that have lost an active duty military member in Iraq and Afghanistan. And we ask that you send us a memorial to your family member that we can post on the HeroBracelets.org Web site. Very simple requests. We hope everyone will honor them.

Please send your requests and memorials to info@herobracelets.org. We will process orders as they come in. We must limit this to the first 100 families that write to us. If, in your order, you choose to order other items, feel free to. Your coupon code will cover the first $14.50 of your order. To those families that have lost a member to the war, we send you our deepest respect, love and condolences.
