VFW and Evertalk Partner to Offer Members Internet Memorials and Tributes
VFW has received an overwhelming request from membership for this online environment
November 30, 2012
SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. and KANSAS CITY, Mo. – Evertalk and the VFW are
partnering to create a digital memorial and tribute wall for members who wish
to honor veterans who have bravely and selflessly served our nation. This
partnership lets VFW members create thoughtful memorial pages for service members
who are no longer with us and tribute pages for veterans they wish to recognize
for serving our country.
VFW members will be able to take advantage of this partnership by using
the Evertalk app on Facebook, as well as through the Evertalk iPhone app. This is a free service now available to all VFW
members. VFW members can also build memorial
and tribute pages for free by going to: http://www.everta.lk.
Each completed page will become part of a special VFW/Evertalk Internet
Memorial and Tribute Wall. Every
Evertalk page offers visitors the opportunity to share their own photos, post
memories in the guestbook, donate to special causes, and learn about the lives
of our nation’s heroes. These pages can
then be easily shared directly through the Evertalk application via Facebook,
email and Twitter. Evertalk is providing this service to VFW members at no
cost.
“Our nation’s heroes should never be
forgotten. That’s the driving belief behind our new partnership with Evertalk.
We’re excited that together, we’re 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.
“The Evertalk team passionately believes that everyone deserves to be
remembered. We strongly feel that our
nation’s heroes must be remembered, respected, and celebrated for their
service. This is why we are excited to
partner with the VFW to advance the ‘Remembering our Heroes’ initiative.” said
Russ Hearl, CEO and co-founder of Evertalk.
“Millions of servicemen and women aren’t represented on physical
memorial walls or statues. So, we think
it’s exceptionally 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.”
