On September 11, 2001, Will Jimeno was a rookie Port Authority police officer, just nine months out of the academy. When the South Tower collapsed, Jimeno and two colleagues were trapped under the rubble between the Twin Towers. He spent 13 hours pinned beneath the debris before he was pulled out alive, one of only 18 people rescued from the World Trade Center rubble.

Today, Will Jimeno spends his time speaking to students and veterans about resilience, faith, and healing.

As we approach the 25th Observance, we honor his story.
We Remember So They Never Forget.

We're pleased to share that additional seats have become available for our upcoming New York City screening of "The Heroism and Resiliency of 9/11," happening this Tuesday, September 8, just days ahead of the 25th Remembrance of 9/11.

This award-winning documentary honors the courage, sacrifice, and unity that emerged from one of our nation's darkest days — stories that matter more than ever as we approach 25 years since the attacks. With more than 100 million Americans now too young to remember 9/11, screenings like this one help carry these stories forward to the next generation.

First to be hospitalized. Last to be released. 25 years later, we remember Debbie St. John's story of survival.

Debbie was on her way to work on September 11, 2001, when the second plane struck. Years later, she reunited with Stefan, the man who saved her life. Her strength since that tragic day continues to inspire us.

Almost 25 years ago, a fighter pilot took off from Andrews Air Force Base not knowing if he'd return. Marc Sasseville's story is a reminder that courage often looks like showing up before you have all the answers.

Last week, we gathered in Hollywood for a special screening of "The Heroism and Resiliency of 9/11: From Tragedy to Triumph."

Guests were welcomed by a live quartet before the film began, setting a tone of reflection and remembrance for the evening ahead. Director Michael Gier joined alongside family, friends, and supporters of the 9/11 Legacy Foundation's mission to ensure the stories of 9/11 are never forgotten.
This film stands as a tribute to the heroism shown that day and the resiliency that followed. Thank you to everyone who came out to honor these stories with us.

As we approach the 25th Observance, moments like this remind us why this work matters.

Every year, the number grows. More Americans who weren't alive on September 11th. More who have no memory of that morning at all. Right now, that number is over 100 million.

Someone has to tell the story of 9/11, clearly and honestly, before it becomes distant history instead of living memory.

Next week, one city puts that mission into action, bringing young people face-to-face with the people who answered the call 25 years ago. We need to see this all across the nation.

On September 11, 2001, Welles Crowther became known to the world only as "the man in the red bandana." Working on the 104th floor of the South Tower, he used his training as a volunteer firefighter to guide survivors down smoke-filled stairwells, making multiple trips back into danger to lead others to safety. He is credited with saving as many as 18 lives before he lost his own.
His bandana, a gift from his father he carried since childhood, has become one of the most enduring symbols of courage to come out of that day.

As we approach the 25th Observance, we honor Welles Crowther's legacy and the tireless work of his mother, Alison Crowther, who has spent the past 25 years turning grief into purpose through the Welles Remy Crowther Charitable Trust. Under her leadership, the Trust continues to help young people grow into exemplary leaders through education, character development, and service.
