Sept. 11, 2001 Commemorative Flag

In the aftermath of September 11th, 2001 FlagsOnCars.com designed a September 11th Commemorative Flag to answer the need for easily accessible patriotic products in a nation reeling from those horrible attacks. In addition to offering traditional United States flag products such as car flags, outdoor flags, magnets and other patriotic products, we were granted a patent by the US Patent office for the September 11th Commemorative Flag.

This commemorative flag is based on the standard design of the American Flag, representing the unity, freedom and patriotism that became so desperately important to Americans after the world trade centers fell. Overlaid on the field of stars, however, is the silhouette of New York City, featuring the prominent twin World Trade Center towers, as it appeared before the attacks. This represents all those who were lost when the towers fell as well as recalling the way the NYC skyline looked before it was changed forever.

Occasionally, the flag will also bear the words "We Will Never Forget" in the white stripes of the bottom of the flag - representing our commitment as a nation never to forget those innocent lives that were lost for our freedom. It also reminds us of the ongoing sacrifices that are made by our men and women in the military to defend our freedom around the world.

In the days immediately following the tragedy of September 11, 2001, FlagsOnCars.com was proud to be able to present the United Way Sept. 11th fund a check for $10,000 to help the survivors and families of the victims in New York City. You can see the check that we sent the United Way and Mayor Giuliani's thank-you letter . Loraine even got to present the check to the United Way in person - here's the picture!

We're pleased to continue this tradition of giving today in all that we do. As you can see from our Photo Gallery, this special flag continues to be used as a commemorative flag around the world and to raise money and scholarship funds for the families of those who were lost on that day. Truly, we will never forget.
