Today we honor the victims who were killed and injured on Sept. 11, 2001.
Nearly 3,000 people lost their lives, including hundreds of first responders. Thousands of people have died from illnesses related to the attacks, and thousands more are still being treated.
JustServe put together a list of 35 events happening across the Valley today and tomorrow that encourage people to do good deeds in remembrance of those killed and injured on 9/11.
Some examples include blood drives, meal packing, cemetery revitalization, food drives, and quilting.
