Annual
Tributes
A group of strangers who became family during their time volunteering at Ground Zero after 9/11 continue to pay tribute to those lost and to our Nation’s Military every Veteran’s Day in New York.
September Tributes
Ground Zero First Responders, Volunteers, Families, & Veterans
New York City • Every September Since 9/11
A Tradition of Unity
In September of each year our group of Ground Zero volunteers and family members gather to remember our nation's fallen due to 9/11/2001. First The Flag is displayed early September by the volunteers and family members. Next, September 11th there's an open house for the volunteers, first responders, family members who were at Ground Zero in 2001. Last, in mid September The Flag is lowered from the building and folded by our community and people frequenting the adjacent San Gennaro Feast of Little Italy.
