Thousands of volunteers will take part in service projects across the United States in September to remember the 9/11 terrorist attacks by serving in their communities.
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is joining with interfaith, volunteer and community groups to promote and organize service opportunities.
Sept. 11 is officially designated as the National Day of Service and Remembrance, but service efforts are not limited to just that day. Hundreds of service needs and opportunities are available at JustServe.org and 911day.org. Individuals can search by area, by interest or even by what’s available.
The Church News is interested in hearing your stories. How has participating in this year’s National Day of Service blessed your life, your family or your community? Stories could include how your ward, school or family volunteered together.
