The Guardian is marking the 25th anniversary of the September 11, 2001 attacks by inviting readers to share memories of loved ones they lost. The callout asks: "What do you want people to remember about them 25 years later?"
How to Share Your Story
Readers who lost someone in the 9/11 attacks can submit their responses through an online form. Participation is open to those aged 18 or over, and contributions can be made anonymously if desired. The form is encrypted, and only the Guardian has access to the submissions.
According to the Guardian's privacy policy, personal data provided will be used solely for the purpose of the feature and will be deleted when no longer required. Alternative secure methods for getting in touch are also available via the outlet's tips guide.
Why the Guardian Is Asking
The initiative aims to honor the memory of those who died in the attacks, which occurred on September 11, 2001. By collecting personal recollections, the Guardian hopes to create a lasting tribute that reflects the human impact of the tragedy, 25 years on.
The callout follows a similar effort in previous years, but this one specifically looks ahead to the milestone anniversary. The Guardian has not specified a deadline for submissions, but encourages readers to share their stories as soon as possible.
How to Access the Form
Those interested can access the form directly through the Guardian's website. For those experiencing technical difficulties, the outlet provides a clickable link to the form. Additional information, including terms of service and privacy policy, is available on the same page.
The Guardian emphasizes that all responses are secure and that contributors retain the option of anonymity. The collected memories will be used to produce a feature commemorating the 25th anniversary of the attacks.
