Steel Across America:
Connecting a Nation
At the heart of our commemoration is Steel Across America, an unprecedented nationwide campaign that will transport an authentic steel beam from the World Trade Center to communities across the United States. From May through September 2026, this powerful symbol of reverence and resilience will visit landmark locations, sporting events, and town squares, creating moments of connection for those who lived through 9/11 and educational opportunities for those too young to remember. This journey represents more than remembrance—it’s a bridge between generations and a reminder that the spirit of service embodied by Stephen Siller, and so many others, continues to inspire Americans today.
