The beam from the World Trade Center is the centerpiece of the Chatham County 9/11 First Responders Memorial, located on US Highway 15/501 just south of the traffic circle in Pittsboro across from the Pittsboro Fire Department. The memorial will honor all fallen first responders.

The foundation is raising all of the funds for the project through grants and private donations from companies and individuals. You can buy a memorial challenge coin for $15 or make a donation by visiting their Facebook page or web site at http://www.ccfrm.org/
