9/11 Family Lunch
On September 11th, 2009, the eighth anniversary of September 11th, 2001, family members gathered at a luncheon sponsored by Tuesday’s Children.
Families came together on an emotional day to enjoy good food and great company at Merchants NY Café in downtown Manhattan.
Families traveled to New York City from as far as Puerto Rico to spend the day remembering those that were lost.
Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani stopped by the event to greet the families. A big thank you to Michael Balboni for generously sponsoring this wonderful event!

Novak Djokovic. ranked #4 in the world, hosted a Tuesday's Children family member at each match that he played during the US Open.
Chris and his mother Traci enjoyed one of Djokovic's matches as did Austin and his mentor Brian.
Brian shared with Danielle that it was a "great experience" and that "Novak came out after the match and talked with Austin and gave him an autographed game hat".
Novak also accompanied Tuesday's Children at the closing bell of the NYSE on September 11th.
Thank you Novak for thinking of the Tuesday's Children families! |
Mets Meet and Greet
 On September 10th 2009 Tuesday's Children participated in the annual Mets Meet and Greet this year on September 10th, 2009. Tim Redding, Nelson Figueroa, Cory Sullivan, Mike Pelfrey, Nick Evans and Jeremy Reed greeted fifteen Tuesday's Children families before the game to sign autographs and pose for pictures.
One Tuesday's Children member told us "We all had a great time!
The autographs on the girls' hats were a huge hit (so to speak :) ).
The seats were terrific and we are all so grateful. You made what would have been a rough night much easier!"
Special thanks to Shannon and the entire Mets franchise for always remembering Tuesday's Children! |
 Fishing on the Taryn-Ann

Tuesday's Children's 2nd Annual Fishing Trip on the Taryn-Ann Charter Fishing Boat was another huge success!

Hudson River Sailing
June 30 , 2009
On one of the few sunny days in June, our teens participated in a one day sailing program delivered by Hudson River Community Sailing.
This unique opportunity to sail on the Hudson River was enjoyed by all. Not only did they learn the basics of sailing in a safe and congenial environment, it was a program that helped the teens connect with each other as they worked as a team sailing their vessels.
A great time was had by all.
A special thanks to Hudson River Community Sailing for providing this wonderful program. |
