⏰ 1️⃣ Day till #911Day ⏰
On #911Day, remember those we lost by serving others in their honor. Cait, an AmeriCorps alum, found healing through service after losing her father, Lieutenant Joseph Leavey, in the World Trade Center attack. Cait chooses to remember her father and those we lost by serving in their honor. She continues to inspire others to serve on 9/11 Day and do what her father loved to do – help others in need. #NeverForget the sacrifices made on that day, and honor them through our actions.
