Today, we pause to remember a solemn chapter in our nation’s history and honor those we lost on September 11, 2001.
As we approach the 25th anniversary of the attacks of 9/11, we reflect on the courage, sacrifice, and resilience that emerged in the face of unimaginable tragedy.
We remember this day in 2002, when the final steel column was removed from Ground Zero—a powerful symbol marking the end of recovery efforts at the World Trade Center site. Draped in an American flag and carried out in a dignified ceremony, the column stood as a tribute to the thousands of lives lost and the brave first responders who gave everything in the rescue and recovery mission.
At First Responders Children's Foundation, we are committed to preserving their legacy by supporting the children and families of first responders who continue to serve our communities with the same courage, selflessness, and dedication.
We remember. We honor. We will never forget.
