Tuesday's Children: WE Volunteer Charity of the Month

Each month, WE Volunteer chooses an organization to highlight as its Charity of the Month. September's Charity of the Month is Tuesday's Children:

"Tuesday's Children is a non-profit family service organization that has made a long-term commitment to every individual who was directly impacted by the events of September 11, 2001, providing a wide range of programming including mentoring, educational and career guidance, leadership training and life management programs, all designed to address the unmet needs of 9/11 family members at each and every stage of life and recovery."

Tuesday's Children has also developed a new program, Project Common Bond, that reaches out to children internationally who have lost a family member to an act of terrorism.  The program brings together teens from around the world for a community building experience.

You can support Tuesday's Children by attending an event, volunteering to be a child's mentor, or making a donation.  To get a sense of the difference being a mentor can make, watch this moving interview by Katie Couric with Hasani Houston, whose father died on 9/11, and his mentor, David Herzog.
