As we remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice of this day, we are reminded of the good that can come from the worst of tragedies. 9/11 Day was created shortly after the September 11th terrorist attacks as an ask to patriotic Americans who wanted "something good" to come from the loss of so many lives. What good deed can you do today, tomorrow and in the days to come to help others and bring positivity and service into your community? Learn more about 9/11 Day at https://911day.org/ to see how your chapter can get involved in Labor Gives Back activities in your community.

Join millions on September 11, 2026 in the nation's largest day of charitable service. The 25th anniversary of 9/11 Day.

Today marks the 25th anniversary of 9/11, a day that fundamentally changed our country forever. We honor those who lost their lives and those whose lives were forever impacted by this day––including the countless members of our AFSCME family in NY and NJ who answered the call of service that day and all the days after.
