Support the Flight93 Memorial Fund on the 10th Anniversary

Steven Singer Creates 9/11 Commemorative Pins to raise funds for the Flight93 Memorial Fund

Show your support on the 10th Anniversary of 9/11. For the third year, Steven Singer along with National Radio Host Michael Smerconish and CBS Radio’s WPHT, will be putting their efforts and support, behind the Flight 93 Memorial Fund. In 2009, Steven Singer created the 9/11 Never Forget Pin. The exclusive Steven Singer 9/11 design is available for a small donation of $10. Supporters who receive this pin are urged to wear it as a display of their support for our country. Pins can be purchased at Steven Singer Jewelers, located at 8th and Walnut in Center City Philadelphia, or online at www.StevenSingerJewelers.com. 100% of the profits will be donated to the Flight 93 National Memorial. To date, over $230,000 has been raised.

On September 11, 2009, just weeks after the initial debut of the pins, Steven proudly presented a $10,000 check to the Flight93 Memorial Fund and Governor Tom Ridge. In 2010, Steven Singer again, had the honor of presenting a check to Michael Smerconish and the Flight93 Memorial Fund, for $200,000. This year, the goal is to raise $1,000,000. The donation will be presented during the dedication of the Flight93 Memorial, the weekend of the 10th Anniversary of the attacks in Shanksville, PA.

The original announcement of the fundraising efforts by Steven Singer, took place on air with Michael Smerconish in the WPHT studios in Bala Cywyd, PA on the morning of August 27, 2009. During the announcement, Steven told on air host Michael Smerconish, “Ever since the tragedy of 9/11 took place, I just felt so helpless. I’m delighted to have such a great vehicle through your show to give back”.

The amazing thing about this fundraising effort? The money has been raised $10 at a time. Average American’s coming together, and donating to the cause.
