You Make the Difference

The 75th WWII Commemoration reaffirms the global vision presented by General Douglas MacArthur on September 2, 1945:

 
 
It is my earnest hope, and indeed the hope of all mankind, that from this solemn occasion a better world shall emerge out of the blood and carnage of the past — a world founded upon faith and understanding, a world dedicated to the dignity of man and the fulfillment of his most cherished wish for freedom, tolerance, and justice.
 

This 75th WWII Commemoration is considered the last opportunity which would include surviving WWII veterans in a national effort of major proportion. Your help is needed to ensure that, before the sun sets on this generation, we take every opportunity to hear their words of wisdom, to record their personal stories, and to pass on their legacy to those destined to lead our future.


Your Help Is Needed!

Inspirational programs and events will take place in Washington D.C., May 6 – 10, 2020, to commemorate the end of war in Europe, with a once-in-a-lifetime mass flyover of the D.C. mall of 100 WWII Warbirds, an aerial parade of enormous proportion recalling each of the historic battles that marched the allies forward to victory. In Hawaii, the collective programs and events running from August 29 – September 2, 2020, will signify the end of war in the Pacific and highlight our national transition from war to a global commitment to peace and friendship. Enemies, now friends, will stand shoulder to shoulder remembering, honoring and confirming our collective hope for peace. More importantly, these events in both Washington D.C. and in Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, advance our national tribute to WWII veterans and their families, and pass on their legacy.

The 75th WWII Commemoration Committee aims to raise $100,000 to help WWII veterans participate in National Commemoration events in Washington D.C. from May 6-10, 2020, and/or events at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii from August 29-September 2, 2020.
