Award Carlos Arredondo the Presidential Citizens Medal for exemplary deeds at the Boston Marathon on April 15, 2013.

Created by D.L. on April 22, 2013

A week ago today, Carlos Arredondo, a peace activist, volunteer and father of two deceased sons, threw himself into ground zero to save Jeff's life as if Jeff was his own son, though they were merely strangers. Jeff then went on to most likely save many more lives, all while recovering in a hospital bed from his own trauma.

If you feel Carlos deserves the Presidential Citizens Medal which honors citizens "who have performed exemplary deeds or services for his or her country or fellow citizens", please follow the link to vote for him and share this with everyone you know!
