The September 11 National Day of Service and Remembrance or 9/11 Day is a federally recognized National Day of Service that happens in the United States on the anniversary of September 11, 2001. It is also referred to as Patriot Day. This Saturday, September 11, 2021, is the 20th anniversary of the tragic events in New York, Washington, DC, and Pennsylvania. As we remember the love, support, and outreach on this historic day, MASC wants to share some resources that schools and families could use to give back and serve America. We can all join together to make this day into a global day of service. |
