Metal Art of Wisconsin Celebrates the Everyday Heroes Among Us

Metal artwork of American flags

America is a country built upon the bravery and selflessness of its people, ordinary people doing truly extraordinary things for the betterment of others. Every day, these anonymous heroes perform acts of courage and kindness, both big and small that serve as an inspiration to us all. From the military service member who protects our borders to the crossing guard who helps our children safely across the street, heroes surround us every day.

Metal Art of Wisconsin would like to show their appreciation for these unsung men and women, and they need your help.

Metal Art of Wisconsin has created a Flags For Fortitude program to honor the heroes in your lives. Nominate a hero by submitting your stories–stories of people who have shown strength in the face of adversity, people that have helped make your life better, or even how you yourself have triumphed against hardship.

Each week, Metal Art of Wisconsin will review the nominations and choose our favorites. They will then be sent one of our amazing American flag art pieces in recognition of their fortitude.

To nominate a hero, please go to www.flagsforfortitude.com. Feel free to include pictures and links to better tell your hero’s story.
