A Time to Remember.

“Ten years ago, the sun rose on a peaceful September morning. By the time it set, nearly three thousand people were gone – the most lives lost on American soil in a single day since the Battle of Antietam. But the courage of so many men and women who saved innocent lives that day will live with us forever.”

– President George W. Bush

To commemorate the 10 year anniversary of 9/11, the George W. Bush Presidential Center is asking you to share your 9/11 story – how did 9/11 change your life; what does the 10 year anniversary mean to you? This collection of stories – your memories – will become a permanent part of the Bush Center and integrated into the online museum experience.

“I can hear you. I can hear you. The rest of the world hears you. And the people who knocked these buildings down will hear all of us soon.”

How to share your story.

Your story (thoughts, feelings) can easily be shared through a captioned photograph; an essay of 250 words or less; or a video featuring your narrative or the narrative of others that have inspired you. We thank you for taking the time to help us remember.
