Online help spawns hope for victims (CNET) -- "Like most other New Yorkers, Shunn couldn't get a connection to phone friends and family. So he went to the Internet and relied on e-mail to communicate, asking about the well-being of different people. Other people had the same idea and began e-mailing him with questions about acquaintances."

World Trade Center victims need more than blood.
They need your talent, skills and expertise.

If You Want to Help:

Volunteer any special skill or talent you can offer: grief counseling, medical, search and rescue, translators, and much more is needed. If you have a special skill or talent that you think can help the victims please volunteer. If you have ways to help that are not already on the list of ways to help, you can easily add that category to the list. Connect with a national network of volunteers who also want to help others. The service is completely FREE to both victims and volunteers. Start helping now at http://volunteer.aviri.com.

How Can I Help?

If you are wondering "HOW can I make a difference?"; simply send this link to someone who you think could help and then realize that you have already made a difference.

If You Need Help:

Register to find help. Someone on the list of volunteers should be able to help. If you have a special need that is not already available, please add it to the list. One of the volunteers is likely to find a way to help your special situation. The service is completely FREE to both victims and volunteers. Find the help you need now at http://volunteer.aviri.com.
