YSA’s We Serve to Remember 9/11 Day of Service Grants are for organizations, schools, and youth changemakers—aged 5 to 25—to lead service projects on or around September 11, 2025. Programming efforts should also honor and pay tribute to those who lost their lives on September 11, 2001, their families, and those who rose in service in response to that tragedy. (We suggest starting with eleven reflections about 9/11/01 and related ideas for service or service-learning projects.)
This year, YSA will award up to 60 grants of $1,000 each. (40 additional grants will be awarded via the Boys and Girls Clubs of America, the Arizona Governor’s Commission on Service and Volunteerism, the Michigan Community Service Commission, and the New Jersey Governor’s Office of Volunteerism. More information coming soon for how to apply through those partners.) Grantees are required to engage at least 100 youth as volunteers in planning and implementing the service activities. The deadline to apply is Sunday, June 15, 2025 at 11:59pm.

Eligible entities include 501(c)3 organizations, educational organizations, CDFIs and Native CDFIs, and tribal governments. The deadline to apply is Thursday, May 1, 2025 at 7:00 p.m. HST.
