Heroic Flags in Review
Donation of our handcrafted American flags to frontline healthcare workers.
My Story
How my eyes and heart were opened!
Hello, my name is Lorenzo Liberti. I am a proud craftsman dedicated to serving those in need by donating proceeds from my hand made, rustic, American flags to non-profits, charities and schools. The idea of giving back first occurred to me in January 2019, when my family went to feed the homeless with our church group and met a veteran in need. The event opened my eyes and heart! For months I struggled to figure out how a teenager could help those in need within our community. However, during my summer break, my prayers were answered.
I discovered a cool DIY project that I wanted to try. My dad helped me get the right tools and materials. After a few attempts and several modifications, I completed my first rustic American flag. It looked so good, that my little brother along with neighbors, insisted I make them one too! With such a positive response, we began to wonder if we could use my talent to support less fortunate people like those we met at the soup kitchen earlier in the year. We reached out to Turning Points of Bradenton (a non-profit organization supporting veterans) and instantly hit it off with them. They invited us to their Christmas Gala where we donated a flag for their silent auction, and I kicked off the evening by performing the National Anthem on violin. By the end of the evening, we sold two flags and helped Turning Points raise over $2,300 for their mission! My summer DIY project became a much bigger endeavor than I could have ever imagined.
​
We started Heroic Flags to honor those who serve while supporting those in need. We have raised over $30,000 for homeless veterans, thousands of dollars for children with special needs and foster kids and sent a flag to a hospital in every state to honor our frontline healthcare workers during the pandemic. Helping those less fortunate than us is something we're called to do and are especially grateful to everyone who has supported us in our mission to give back locally. Thank you and God Bless you.

Sincerely,
Lorenzo Liberti & Family
