In observance of the 20th Anniversary of the 9/11 attacks and in alignment with this year’s CNCS Day of Remembrance theme, Honor. Serve. Unite, Serve DC cohosted a meal pack with 9/11Day.org on Saturday, September 11, 2021. The Brothers of Mu Lambda gathered at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center on Saturday, September 11 for a Day of Service. Brothers were tasked with assembling vegan jambalaya bags and packing them into boxes. 40 bags were packed in each box. Over 20,000 meals were prepped that day. 9/11 Day is now the nation’s largest annual day of charitable engagement, officially recognized under federal law. Each 9/11, nearly 30 million Americans volunteer, donate to charities, and perform other good deeds to promote national unity and empathy, in honor of the victims of 9/11 and those who rose in service in response to the attacks. Fraternally, Community Chair Brother Samuel I. Armstrong
