A 501c3 Non-profit org. Fed. EIN 47-3227931August 14, 1945...WW2 ends and the nation erupts in celebration!! Yet...most of the WW2 Hero's, our Greatest Generation, came home long after the celebrations were over...never getting the "Hero's Welcome" they deserved. Sadly, we are losing these hero's of our Greatest Generation at an alarming rate of one every 90 seconds. Will you help us to Honor these Hero's on the 70th Anniversary of the end of World War 2?
“Keep the Spirit of ’45 Alive!” is a nationwide, grassroots, nonpartisan coalition of organizations and individuals who are working together to establish an annual day to honor the achievements of what is often referred to as America’s ‘GREATEST GENERATION’ so that their example of courage, self-sacrifice, can do attitude, service and national unity will forever inspire future generations of Americans – especially our youth.
In 2010, Congress voted unanimously in favor of a National Spirit of ’45 Day to be observed on the second Sunday of every August, coinciding with the anniversary of August 11, 1945, the historic day when President Harry S. Truman announced that World War II was over and America took on the responsibility for rebuilding the postwar world in an unprecedented effort to assure a better future for both its allies and former enemies alike.
National Spirit of ’45 Day provides an opportunity for America to say “Thank you!” to those who served in uniform and those who supported them on the Home Front, the men and women who were the “ordinary heroes” of the WWII generation who are now passing away at an estimated rate of one every 90 seconds. It is also a time to honor the memory of the more than 400,000 Americans who made the ultimate sacrifice and never came home.
This year we mark the 70th Anniversary of the end of WW2...will you help us give these Hero's the Celebration that most of them never received? Donate today...if each person viewing this site donated $1.00 the celebration could be tremendous. Want more information? Visit us at www.IndianaSpiritof45.org
