The IV 9/11 Stair Climb Committee is a non-profit organization with a small group of members who represent the fire community, law enforcement community and the stakeholder communities within the Imperial Valley. Our priority is to ensure that the Imperial Valley "Never Forgets," and remembers to honor and pay tribute to the heroes of September 9/11, while enhancing the morale, welfare and productivity of our first responders, and the community we serve.

The vision of the IV 9/11 Stair Climb Committee is to continue our partnership with the community in observance of an annual memorial event during the weekend of September 11. This memorial and stair climb event is a way for the Imperial Valley to come together and pay respect to the 343 firefighters, 60 law enforcement personnel and the 10 emergency medical personnel who selflessly gave their lives during the terrorist attacks in 2001.
