“In the course of an Athlete’s lifetime, we should hope and pray that not only will we be remembered for our athletic achievements but more importantly for how we used our God given talents to give something good back to humanity.”

WE WILL NEVER FORGET

History teaches us the story of our Planet. September 11, 2001 defined a moment in history for a Nation of free citizens. A nation whose entire 200 plus year history has been etched into the gravestones of the men and women who have defended the Rights and Liberties of anyone who ever dreamed of living in a free and democratic society. In those frozen moments during the morning of Tuesday September 11, 2001 we saw the enormous price our citizens were willing to pay to protect our Freedom. From the Heroes on Flight 93 to the emergency personnel on the ground to our Military and to every citizen who came to help rescue someone WE WILL NEVER FORGET your sacrifice!

ATHLETES FOR AMERICA was born out of the ashes of the World Trade Centers, the flames of the Pentagon and the Heroes of Flight 93. Our organization of Athletes, young and old, professional and amateur are dedicated to helping all Americans become better prepared for all types of emergencies whether natural or manmade. Our Motto is to PROTECT * SERVE * EDUCATE * MAKE A DIFFERENCE for all Americans. On this seventh anniversary of 9.11 we at AFA want to thank every person who has served or is now serving this great country. We pray for those who have lost their loved ones either on that terrible day or in the time since 9.11.2001 protecting our Nation. We also ask that any American who would like to TEAM-UP with our national network please step onto the playing field. Simply sign up right here on our AFA website.

For every person who understands how precious our Freedom is, do not ever forget September 11, 2001. History will show in time that our Nation became a stronger Nation because of that day. More importantly, because of 9.11.2001 we the people of the United States of America have the opportunity and responsibility to once again lead the people of this World to a better and safer life, no matter where they live. In the immortal words of Mr. Todd Beamer, one of the Heroes of Flight 93, “LET’S ROLL!”
