Our nation endured one of its most devastating days on September 11, 2001. Many lost their lives to the attacks, and our armed forces, emergency responders, and countless others in service sacrificed theirs to defend our nation. A year after the attacks, family members who lost their loved ones led the effort for a fitting tribute to honor their lives and those who volunteered to serve our country in response. The families’ efforts resulted in the September 11 National Day of Service and Remembrance with AmeriCorps charged with supporting the commemoration across the county every year.
This year we are asking you to join us on 9/11 to revitalize the University Community Park. Volunteers will be planting a pollinator garden, placing mulch around trees and sitting area, and weeding the stone pathway.
Lunch provided between 12pm - 1 pm.
If you need a low mobility project, please put that in the note area when you complete registration. We plan to make Michigan Native seed orbs.
**AmeriCorps members MUST serve the whole day from 9am - 4pm.**
