September 11th National Day of Service and Remembrance

Date: 
Sep 11 2021 - 12:00am to 11:59pm
Location: 
Nationwide

The September 11th National Day of Service and Remembrance is the culmination of efforts originally launched in 2002 by the nonprofit 9/11 Day with wide support by the 9/11 community and leading national service organizations. This effort first established the inspiring tradition of engaging in charitable service on 9/11 as an annual and forward-looking tribute to the 9/11 victims, survivors, and those who rose up in service in response to the attacks.

On April 21, 2009, Congress enacted the Serve America Act into law, recognizing September 11th as an annual “National Day of Service and Remembrance,” and charged the AmeriCorps agency with leading this nationwide effort;. Everyone, in all communities is encouraged to volunteer on this day to honor those who died or were injured during the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks.

Join AmeriCorps on 9/11 Day— step forward to serve in a remarkable spirit of unity, honor, and compassion.
