Tomorrow at 8:46 AM Eastern Daylight time, by presidential
proclamation, Americans are called on to participate in a moment of silence to
commemorate the nearly 3,000 people who died as a result of the terrorist
attacks on United States soil.
There are additional ways to honor the victims of 9/11; as part of
the National Day of Service and Remembrance: many service and remembrance
activities are planned throughout the United States that will support and honor
veterans, soldiers, military families, and first responders. Some examples are:
- Painting and refurbishing
homes;
- Reclaiming neighborhoods;
- Collecting food and assembling
care packages; and
- Writing thank you notes to
members of the military or protective services.
