The 9/11 nonprofit MyGoodDeed and HandsOn Network, our volunteer activation division, have joined together to encourage all Americans to commemorate the anniversary of September 11 as a National Day of Service and Remembrance, leading the efforts to inspire one million acts of charitable service in tribute to the victims, survivors and those who rose to service in response to the attacks 10 years ago.

911day.org has a variety of ways for you to get involved as part of the 9/11 tribute movement by volunteering, making tributes, or taking part in remembrance ceremonies.

September 11 is 3 days away- Here are ways you can make a meaningful contribution to honor and remember the 10th anniversary:

• Post a Tribute: The Tribute App lets you share a commitment to take action. You can add the Tribute App to your organization's Facebook page here or go to http://911day.org/post-tribute to post a tribute. Tributes appear immediately on the 9/11day.org site

• Search for a Project: Interested in volunteering? You can search the project database of more than 100,000 opportunities between 8/30 – 9/25 at http://911day.org/volunteer or find a volunteer opportunity with the I WILL VOLUNTEER Facebook application. One of the great features of the I WILL VOLUNTEER app is that it lets you know if your friends are signed up to volunteer at a project, and you can volunteer together.

• Register Your Service Projects: Share what your organizations are doing at http://www.911day.org/npovolunteer/hoc and register your events to be included in the database of projects.

• Visit HandsOn Network Affiliate websites: For service opportunities near you on and after the 10th anniversary of September 11th, visit your local HandsOn Network affiliate’s website to find volunteer opportunities. You can find your local affiliate here.

• Support the social media campaigns. When you’re talking about what you're doing for the day of service and remembrance, use the #IWill hashtag on Twitter, and tag @911Day on Facebook. (Don’t forget to Like the page so you can tag it!)

Our goal is to help create a permanent and positive legacy that rekindles the spirit of unity that existed immediately after the September 11th attacks, and honor the victims, heroes and all of those who rose in service in response to the terrorist attacks that changed our nation.

Let us know how you're planning to remember the friends and family that we lost on September 11th in the comments.
