Today, we honor the lives lost on September 11, 2001, and the first responders who continue to live with its lasting health effects.

We’re proud to share the story of retired NYPD officer William Giammarino, who served at Ground Zero and later developed a 9/11-related illness that required a double lung transplant. With the support of the WTC Health Program and the expertise of our transplant team at North Shore University Hospital, he received a successful transplant in September 2024 that gave him not just new lungs, but a new life.

His resilience is a powerful reminder of the ongoing health impact of 9/11 and the importance of continuing to care for and advocate on behalf of those who served.
