The Daffodil Project was founded in 2001 as a living memorial to Sept. 11. With nearly 5 million free bulbs planted citywide by more than 100,000 school kids, parks and gardening groups, civic organizations, corporate volunteers and other New Yorkers, it is one of the largest volunteer efforts in the city’s history.
Learn how easy it is to volunteer and help keep the gates open for our community.
