Tuesday's Children

History

Tuesday's Children was founded on September 18, 2001 by citizens of Manhasset, NY following the September 11, 2001 terror attacks. The organization initially raised funds for the American Red Cross, which were used to support families affected by the tragedy.

• An original song, "Ballerina" to honor the memory of the lost Firefighters, Police Officers and professional ballerina lost in the 9/11 disaster. A CD recorded in memory of this tragic event. All profits were donated to Tuesday's Children.
