How we began our efforts

September 11, 2002

Morrone was the highest-ranking public official and police officer to  parish on September 11, 2001.  At that time, he was also the executive vice president and incoming board president of the INTERPORTPOLICE.

While others were escaping the World Trade Towers, Morrone and his 36 fellow officers were going up the stairs to assist others and in the end, perished.   

Morrone was a visionary and strived to help other departments, especially developing counties, recognizing if they were trained it would in the end help western world countries.

 

The Morrone Educational fund was established in his memory and with the consent of the family and the assistance of leadership of the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey Police Department in 2002 at the 9/11 Memorial in New York City.

 

In 2016, the Morrone 9/11 Center became a separate qualified U.S. 501c3 research and education organization to support further efforts to make the world a safer place.

 

Efforts focus on transportation security, public safety, critical infrastructure, and mass people environments.
