What is the Utah County 9/11 Project?



The Utah County Remembers 9/11 Project is a community-driven initiative organized by the Major Brent Taylor Foundation in partnership with the Utah County Commission. Now in its fifth year, the project brings together thousands of Utah residents, students, families, veterans, and civic leaders to remember the events of September 11, 2001, and to honor the ongoing sacrifices of military service members, first responders, and community heroes.

This initiative transforms remembrance into an immersive educational experience, a community resource showcase, and a youth engagement platform, ensuring that the legacy and lessons of 9/11 are passed on to future generations.

Our Mission

  • REMEMBER the lives lost and the heroes who responded.
  • EDUCATE the rising generation about the impact of 9/11 and the War on Terror.
  • HONOR the ongoing service of our military, first responders, and community leaders.
  • CONNECT the community through service, engagement, and unity.

This makes it one of the largest educational remembrance events in Utah.
