The September 11th National Day of Service and Remembrance is the culmination of an effort originally launched in 2002 by 9/11 family members and support groups, who worked to establish the charitable service day in honor of 9/11 victims and survivors, and others who rose up in service in response to the attacks. In 2009, Congress designated September 11th as a National Day of Service and Remembrance. On this solemn anniversary, Americans unite in service in the same remarkable way that so many came together following the attacks. In 2011 DOROT received a 3 year challenge grant from the Corporation for National and Community Service, a federal agency that awarded 14 grants around the country supporting this effort. DOROT is the only New York City recipient of this federal grant. Get involved in DOROT’s 9/11 National Day of Service and Remembrance initiative.
