Foundation Established, 2001
NYC, Texas, Middle East, and all points in between	September 11-14, 2001 The WORLD MEMORIAL concept was incubated by volunteers; serving at the APA UNION Crisis Center.  Mr. Warren Clymer, Art Director of The Godfather (finest NY movie of all times), joined the cause by designing the WORLD MEMORIAL theme. By the end of September, the organization had debuted on the World Wide Web. Consolations, 9/11 images, and memorial ideas (incorporating surviving WTC iron, museum, education center and park) poured in from around the globe.   Adding an extra challenge just three weeks into 9/11, Air Force Reservist, JFK B-767 Pilot, and WM Founder was activated for ENDURING FREEDOM. He had 24 hours to report for duty. Over the next 12 months, he commanded a C-5 crew for delivery of troops and supplies directly to the AOR. For more bullets, visit the PRESS ROOM.
2002 International Forum Based on wishes received from the WM International Forum - A team was forged to design a Ground Zero Memorial. Subsequently, two hundred professionals, from architects to zoologist, from all corners of the world, joined this worthy cause. Throughout 2002, WORLD MEMORIAL corresponded with thousands of people solely through the Internet, fax, phone and occasional ham radio.

2003 Release of Souls Out of hundreds of organizations, submissions and requests - a welcomed call came from an unlikely place...Vancouver. A Canadian artist group built an 18' tall Memorial as a gift to America. After seeing it in person, our cadre immediately decided that the Release of Souls had to go on tour across North America.
