MONETARY
DONATIONS
We at Adam's Angels pride ourselves on the fact that we still do not accept
monetary donations.
Having said that, Adam's Angels fully supports the work of the following
non-profit programs created by 9/11 Family Members and hope that you will
consider supporting them.
One of Adam's Angels, Ellen Saracini, widow of United Flight 175 Captain
Victor Saracini and her community are creating a 9/11 Memorial Garden in
memory of the 17 Bucks County, Pennsylvania residents lost on
September 11th. They need your help! See: http://www.9-11memorialgarden.org/ for donation information.
Brian's Fund, in memory of firefighter Brian E. Sweeney. Their mission is
different from other 9/11 memorial funds. Brian's Fund a not-for-profit
organization that helps technology dependent children. These are children
that are disabled, coupled with complex health care needs. Please visit the
website for Brian's Fund at http://www.briansfund.com for more information,
to purchase a Brian E. Sweeney memorial t-shirt or to donate (if you do
make a donation, please mention Adam's Angels either in a note or as a memo
on the check).
Voices of September 11th, was co-founded by Mary Fetchet, a good friend to
Adam's Angels. Voices was established informally in October, 2001, in order
to provide victims' families with up-to-date information on programs,
resources, services and related events. Voices' mission has since evolved
to include a community-based program to assist families and extended
families. Using the experience of the Oklahoma City bombing on its
community, Voices works to address the long-term mental health issues of
depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress and risk of suicide. Because of
the increasing demand of services, Voices of September 11th Secured a
501(c)3, non-profit status and opened an office in New Canaan, Connecticut.
The ongoing mandate is to act as a clearinghouse of information for the
9/11 families by maintaining a website, distributing newsletters and
conducting outreach programs. As an advocacy group on behalf of 9/11
families, Voices will communicate with public officials and other agencies
regarding the World Trade Center Memorial, annual commemorative events and
other issues. As a community based organization, Voices provides support
groups, bereavement groups, education, outreach, mental health assessments
and referrals and related workshops. It is participating in Columbia
University's 3 year World Trade Center Evacuation as an advisory board
member. To learn more about Voices or to make a donation to support their
work, please visit: http://www.voicesofsept11.org
