New York Says Thank You Foundation is a growing national and global “pay it forward” service movement that is creating transformative solutions based on survivor empowerment in disaster relief, education, and the arts. The mission of New York Says Thank You is to build hope and provide healing to people around the world as a way to continually “pay it forward” for the humanity, kindness, and volunteer spirit New Yorkers – and all Americans – experienced on 9/12. We operate five inter-related programs: 9/11 Anniversary “barn-raising”, Hurricane Sandy First Responder Rebuilding Fund, National 9/11 Flag Restoration, 9/12 Generation Project, and Stars of HOPE. Our core disaster relief project is our annual 9/11 Anniversary “barn-raising” where we empower survivors from across the U.S to help rebuild and strengthen communities. In the wake of Hurricane Sandy, New York Says Thank You Foundation has been privileged to help rebuild and repair over 100 homes for New York area first responders and their families displaced by the storm. The National 9/11 Flag is a 30 foot-American flag destroyed in the aftermath of the collapse of the World Trade Center. We had the honor of taking the flag on a 50-state journey where we empowered 30,000 everyday service heroes to stitch the flag back to its original 13-stripe format using fabric from retired American flags in all 50 states. The 9/12 Generation Project is the education and service-learning division of New York Says Thank You Foundation. The goal of the project is to inspire, educate & activate middle and high school students with the positive, timeless, and universal lesson of citizenship that emerged from 9/12. Our Stars of HOPE program empowers children to use the healing power of art to transform communities impacted by natural and man-made disaster. Stars of HOPE therapeutic arts program has impacted 40 communities around the US and 3 global communities. What we do is about 9/12!
