Katie Favazza is encouraging people to help remember those who died on September 11th. Here’s what she wrote:
Project 2,996 needs 2,996 bloggers–one for each of the victims of September 11th–who will write tribute posts honoring these fallen, innocent Americans.
On September 11, 2009 the participants of Project 2,996 will join in a massive blogburst. With enough participants I hope we can flood the blogosphere and the internet with the names faces and stories of the 2,996 people who were murdered for doing nothing more than living their daily lives.
Updates to the list of assigned victims are not instant, but it appears that 42 people, or only 1.4 percent of the victims, are claimed as of right now. To sign up, simply post a comment on the 2,996 Project website offering to write a tribute and include your email and a link to your blog. Let me know if you sign up and who you’ll be honoring. If you don’t have a blog and would still like to help, you can do that, too; look for the directions on the 2,996 site, or contact me and I’d be honored to publish tributes on your behalf.
I volunteered.
How about you?
