Evertalk and the Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) Partner to Create Online Memorial & Tribute Wall

(November 01, 2012)

San Francisco, CA and Kansas City, MO (PRWEB) November 01, 2012

This Veterans Day (November 11, 2012), Evertalk and the Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) are joining forces to create a digital memorial & tribute wall for veterans of the armed forces who have bravely served our country. This partnership lets members of the VFW create free tribute pages and memorial sites for Veterans and servicemen and women they wish to recognize for serving our country. Over 1.6 million VFW members will be able to leverage this partnership with Evertalk using their app on Facebook and also available through the Evertalk iPhone app. Anyone can create a free tribute page, memorial site and fundraising campaign by going to: https://www.everta.lk

With each completed page, a special Evertalk internet memorial & tribute wall is being dynamically built. Each Evertalk page offers visitors to the page the opportunity to share their own photos, post memories in the guestbook, donate to special causes, and learn about the lives of our nations heroes. These pages can then be easily shared via Facebook, email, and Twitter, directly through the Evertalk application. Evertalk is providing this service to VFW members at no cost. The VFW tribute and memorial wall can be found on Evertalk here: https://www.everta.lk/evertalk/partners/view/1

Our nations heroes should never be forgotten. Thats the driving belief behind our new partnership with Evertalk. Were excited that together, were able to provide our members with the opportunity to honor the lives and legacies of their brothers and sisters in arms, says Randi Law, Manager, VFW Communications and Public Affairs.

Creators of Evertalk tribute pages may also enable Evertalks innovative crowdfunding capabilities on their Evertalk page to raise money to donate to special causes or to assist families with hospital bills.

The Evertalk team passionately believes that everyone deserves to be remembered. We strongly feel that our nations heroes must be recognized and celebrated for their service. This is why we are excited to join forces with the VFW on this great program. said Russ Hearl, CEO and co-founder of Evertalk. Millions of servicemen and women arent represented on physical memorial walls or statues. So, we think its important to give the families of our brave heroes the ability to create their own space online using Evertalk so they can ensure their memory lives on.
