9/11 Memorial & Museum Commemorates the 18th Anniversary of Recovery Efforts at Ground Zero
Each year on May 30, the 9/11 Memorial & Museum honors the courage and sacrifice of all 9/11 rescue, recovery, and relief workers, as well as survivors and members of the downtown community, by marking the anniversary of the formal end of recovery operations at Ground Zero with a commemorative ceremony.
The formal end of the recovery operations at Ground Zero concluded on May 30, 2002, nearly nine months after the attacks. Traditionally, the 9/11 Memorial & Museum marks this occasion through commemorative activities on the Memorial and inside the Museum. But this year, because of the COVID-19 pandemic, we are unable to do so. Instead, we will lead an online ceremony to mark the 18th anniversary of the end of recovery operations and also, the one-year anniversary of the dedication of the 9/11 Memorial Glade.
Please join us virtually on Saturday, May 30, at 11:00 a.m. as we pay tribute to you, to everyone in the 9/11 rescue and recovery community, and to all who are suffering or have died from exposure to 9/11-related hazards and toxins in the aftermath of the attacks, especially at a time when pre-existing health conditions leave this population particularly vulnerable. This year, we will use this occasion to demonstrate our gratitude and appreciation for the men and women on the front lines of response to the COVID-19 health crisis – honoring our frontline responders, then and now.
Date: Saturday, May 30th
Time: 11:00am

The ceremony will be available online. Please visit the website HERE.
Fields Good Chicken is OPEN for Take Out + Delivery and Giving Back to Frontline Workers
Good News FiDi: Fields Good Chicken has re-opened.
Fields Good Chicken has re-opened! The FiDi outpost is located at 101 Maiden Lane. This delicious chicken-centric destination is not only open for take out and delivery, but also supporting frontline workers and giving back to the community.
New delivery + Takeout Options: Knowing that New Yorkers are in need of comforting meals right now, FGC’s director of culinary Dan Jackson developed a new Family Meal package which includes the guest’s choice of chicken, a variety of sides, salad, cornbread, and sauces for $48 (the meal can feed 5-6 people but is great for someone solo or a couple to order and enjoy as leftovers for a few days).
Making a Positive Impact: Fields Good Chicken mission has been to make a positive impact. When founder and CEO Field Failing was in the hospital a few weeks back with his wife who was giving birth to their second son, he was inspired by the medical workers on the frontline fighting the virus. He sprung into action and worked with FGC’s catering team to proactively reach out to hospitals in Manhattan to coordinate complimentary deliveries. To date, the team has served over 3,000 medical workers. Using their existing catering infrastructure to feed folks on the frontlines also led to overwhelming support from guests who wanted to get involved, so the team launched Birds for Good, a donation platform to support the hospital deliveries.
There are two locations open for business: FiDi (101 Maiden Lane) and Union Square (24 East 12th Street). Both locations are offering lunch and dinner pick-up and contactless delivery via Seamless, GrubHub, UberEats, and the Fields Good Chicken app.
