9/11 Day of Service Mini Grant

9/11 NATIONAL DAY OF SERVICE MINI GRANT

- Grant Application Due by 6/8/2026 -

The 9/11 National Day of Service and Remembrance is the culmination of an effort initially launched in 2002 by 9/11 family members and support groups, who worked to establish the charitable service day as a forward-looking way to honor 9/11 victims, survivors, and others who rose in service response to the attacks. In 2009, Congress designated September 11 as a National Day of Service and Remembrance and charged AmeriCorps with supporting this effort across the country. With funding from AmeriCorps, the Kansas Volunteer Commission is working with organizations across Kansas to engage volunteers in tribute projects.

Grant period is September 1-30, 2026.
