“Good luck and best wishes on your worthy endeavor. For someone who was born and raised outside of the United States of America, I have a profound reverence for this document even before I set foot on this country. Protecting and defending it and the country for which it stands while in uniform for 21 years was a rare honor and privilege of my life.”

– Luis E

 

“I am sending a contribution on behalf of my wife and I. She grew up in Vietnam, and looks at the USA as a shining beacon of personal freedom. We can uphold her expectations.
It is great that you don’t take corporate contributions. That way it can’t be hijacked for PR purposes. We wish we could give more, but these are tight times . . . Thank you.”

– Adam P

 

It is about time someone started a project like this. As a disgruntled, disillusioned, and angry Vietnam Vet, all I can say is . . . Thank You !!

– Robert V

 

“My mother had the Bill of Rights FRAMED and positioned at the top of our staircase at home. Not the 10 Commandments (even though she was a devout Catholic). For our family, through many generations it was the Bill of Rights that was the supreme document that we held and hold sacred. It’s what we fought and died for. Thank you”

– MG

“My donation went out today, and I’ve never felt better about sending money. Great cause.”

I am also including a copy of the Bill of Rights to all my young adult children with their Christmas presents and am going to donate money in their names. I think this is the one thing that might unite America….and give the youngsters some insight into what America is . . . not just materialism. Thank you.”

– Barbara B

 

“I was in DC this year and went see the original document. Very faded but still there. We need to be sure the fading is only on the old-time document and that our rights are strongly visible in real-life. Great Idea. Important work.“

– Robert S

 

“What a wonderful idea! I was shocked to learn there isn’t any such monument already. This is a fantastic idea that all Americans should support!”

– Scott S

 

“. . . simply great. I’ve got a bookmark with the Bill of Rights printed on the two sides, and you bet I’m using it. Kids should not be able to leave 3rd grade without being able to tell at least those 10 rights. It should be published in other languages for Americans who immigrated and whose command of English is not strong.”

– Deborah S

 

“One portion of my and my children’s gift exchange with each other for the past several years has been Heifer International. I want you to know that this year it’s going to include Foundation Foundation. I’ve been searching for something that I feel has a chance to truly make a difference. Thank you more that I could ever say!”

– Davina C

 

“Enclosed is a $100 check, which is the only thing I have made even remotely resembling a political contribution in about 20 years. I am looking forward to the day that the Bill of Rights monument shows up here in Austin at the Capitol. Thanks for kicking this project off.”

– Robert M

 

“$20.00 is all I can afford, but very glad to do it! Loved the comment about putting your hand on the bible to uphold the Constitution, rather than the other way around. Brilliant!

– Hunter C

 

“This is a wonderful idea. It should raise the consciousness of many Americans regarding perhaps our most important document related to American freedom. Please consider the future sites of Independence Square in Philadelphia and Ground Zero in NY”

– William B

 

“I will forward your email to others, including my very right-wing brother-in-law. I hope you find that this is a good way to connect otherwise at-odds people.”
