Kids can honor a hero

By now, you’ve probably heard about the amazing ‘Miracle on the Hudson’ – and how U.S. Airways pilot Chesley “Sully” Sullenberger III made an incredible split-second decision to land the plane into the Hudson River, saving all 155 on board. 

In New York City, a kids’ group called KidCity started a project to thank the hero they say saved not only his crew and passengers, but quite possibly many more people on the ground. Kids are honoring the pilot by sending him artwork, photos, drawings, and more.  They are compiling the art and including a gift to present to “Sully.”

Even though this project is based out of New York City, I am sure his efforts are appreciated across the country.  Kids here in Oklahoma can contribute to this project by sending cards, artwork, photos, or anything else to honor the pilot to:

Sam Chapnick  

300 W. 55th St.#15A  

New York, NY     10019   

What a great way to say “Thank you for a job well done.”
