It has been more than 20 years since many lost their lives to the 9/11 attacks. Individually and as a country, we’ve endured the heartache. And millions of people in the United States and allied nations continue to demonstrate that what unites us is greater than what divides us.
9/11 Day of Service and Remembrance allows us to come together in unity through service to our communities. You can join with One Warm Coat, AmeriCorps and 911Day to commemorate the sacrifices of those lost and forever changed this 9/11 Day. Help keep the spark of compassion and service alive by holding a coat drive in your community. Because when we serve side by side with our neighbors, we can put aside differences to build better communities that advance racial equity, provide opportunities to more people, and foster respect for individual perspectives.
