ABOUT THE 9/11 PATCH PROJECT:

The four 9/11 Patches

The 9/11 Patch Project is the world's largest, longest running and farthest reaching firefighter-owned 9/11 project. Formed in December of 2001, the projects goals have been to remember the heroes of 9/11 and raise funds for 9/11 related organizations. The four 9/11 Tribute uniform patches the project has sold for the past 11 years, have raised over $200,000 and become the permanent uniform tribute for over 9000 public safety and U.S. military organizations in 30 countries.

The project was founded by Firefighter/Paramedic Brett Hill who was active from 1986-2006 in the Southern California area. Retired after an on-the-job injury, Hill currently works as a Fire Inspector for Paramount Studios in Hollywood.

Also, co-producing the shows, is the apparel company, Xtreme Valor (co-owned by two of FDNY's Bravest)

Adam Ferrara Hosts 9/11 Charitable Event

As Top Gear host, Rescue Me star and comedian with several Comedy Central specials, Adam Ferrara is a busy man. But not too busy to host a 9/11 charitable event on behalf of the 9/11 Patch Project.

Adam is set to take the stage at the House of Blues in San Diego on behalf of the Feal Good Foundation, NYC Bravest Scholarship Fund, Terry Farrell Fund and the 9/11 Patch Project Fund. The event will be held on February 20th with two comedy shows for an expected audience of 500 per show. The event is called the "Fully Involved Comedy Tour," and is the 2nd stop following comedian Ralphie May's hit shows in Baltimore, back in July.

Adam is no stranger to the 9/11 Patch Project. His friendship with our Director of Events & Marketing helped him become interested and involved with our fund raising efforts.

When Adam is not filming episodes of Top Gear he is hitting comedy clubs across the country. One of his best shows is a Comedy Central hit called "Funny as Hell," and he is! Adam has also appeared on the Jay Leno Tonight Show several times.

The shows in San Diego are being held in conjunction with the Firehouse World show and are open to the general public. All the net proceeds from ticket sales will be equally split between the four 9/11 charities.

The 9/11 Patch Project is currently searching for a "Title Sponsor" for both shows. This sponsorship gives the sponsor naming rights to the show, sponsor name on the House of Blues Marque, large logo on stage back drop banner, large logo on cover of show program, large logo on booth banner at the Firehouse World show and many other benefits. More on this sponsorship and others at this LINK.

To pull off a show of this magnitude and insure there are significant funds raised, sponsorships are vital. Please consider becoming one of our sponsors for this great event and we'll make sure your organization gets the promotion it deserves; you help us--we'll help you!

For those that want to attend the event, tickets are now on sale at TicketMaster and the House of Blues.
