As the VCF has completed its 13th year of operations, the mission remains straightforward - to serve those who continue to be affected by the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. First, and foremost, is our responsibility to review claims as quickly and fairly as possible. I am proud to report that in 2024, the VCF notified claimants of over 11,500 award determinations, with more than $1.9 billion awarded. This level of accomplishment is made possible by the tireless dedication of the entire VCF team.

While it is impossible to review the past year without mention of the enormous challenges presented by COVID-19, and its particularly severe impact on the 9/11 community, I am proud to report that the VCF’s work on their behalf continued with almost no disruption throughout 2020.
