New York Says Thank You Foundation

New York Says Thank You Foundation is a growing non-profit organization based in New York City. With a team of four dedicated employees, the foundation generates an annual revenue of $2.5 million through its various programs. The foundation operates five key programs aimed at empowering survivors and rebuilding communities. These programs include the annual 9/11 Anniversary "barn-raising," a project that assists survivors across the United States in rebuilding and strengthening communities. They also offer support to first responders and their families impacted by natural disasters, such as Hurricane Sandy, through home rebuilding and repair initiatives. The National 9/11 Flag Restoration project involved a nationwide journey to stitch a damaged flag back to its original form using contributions from retired American flags across all 50 states. Furthermore, the foundation focuses on education and service-learning through the 9/12 Generation Project, inspiring middle and high school students to embrace citizenship values. Their Stars of HOPE program utilizes the healing power of art to support children in communities affected by disasters, both domestically and internationally. Through these diverse programs, New York Says Thank You Foundation strives to create transformative solutions based on survivor empowerment.
