(PRESS RELEASE) -- In observance of 9/11 National Day of Service on Wednesday, 11 September, The Venetian Las Vegas Team Members will participate in a company-sponsored volunteer activity in partnership with 9/11 Day Organization. Team Members will assemble 1,000 hygiene kits to be distributed to those in need, supporting ongoing efforts to combat homelessness in the Las Vegas area. This initiative offers Team Members a meaningful way to give back, honoring the spirit of unity and service that has come to define September 11 as the National Day of Service and Remembrance.
“Being the first location in Nevada to formally participate in the official 9/11 National Day of Service with 9/11 Day Organization is an honor and responsibility that we don’t take lightly,” said Anna Schmid, vice president of communications and corporate social responsibility for The Venetian Resort Las Vegas. “The power of community outreach has always been a key pillar in our Venetian community, and we’re looking forward to what we can accomplish together every year on September 11, as we keep our promise to ‘never forget’ while uplifting our community.”
The Venetian Resort is proud to partner with 9/11 Day Organization and join the network of more than 20 events happening nationwide. September 11 is now the largest day of service in America, officially recognized under federal law. Over 30 million Americans and others around the world participate each year, dedicating their time to helping those in need and embracing the organization’s vision of turning the anniversary of 9/11 into a day of doing good.
