The 20th anniversary of 9/11 is coming. The terrorist attacks killed 2,977 people and injured thousands at the World Trade Center, the Pentagon, and in Somerset County, Pennsylvania. Americans host commemorative events at all three sites on the anniversary of the attacks.
Firefighters and their families sacrifice a lot to save lives, who deserve our honor and respect, especially at this memorial moment. In September, the Greater Princeton branch of AYLUS (GPA) continued an event called “Meals from the Heart”. GPA members honor our firefighter heroes in our community in our unique way.
On September 5th, GPA members Winnie Chen (2 hrs) and Melanie Chen (2 hrs) organized a “Meals from the Heart” event for local firefighters. GPA members (1 hr for all), including Cosner Yang and Yi Lin, joined the organizers for the event, hand delivering the meals to the Metuchen Volunteer Firefighters (121 Pinegrove Ave., Somerset, NJ 08873).
More donation events are coming in September throughout the state of New Jersey!
