San Diego 9/11 Memorial Stair Climb
The San Diego 9/11 Memorial Stair Climb is a commemorative stair-climbing event held at 1 Park Blvd, San Diego, CA. The 2026 event is scheduled for Saturday, September 5. The climb honors the 403 emergency responders who died on September 11, 2001, and emphasizes remembrance of their courage and service. The event also highlights ongoing risks faced by firefighters, noting that each year about 100 firefighters die while serving their communities.
Funds raised for the 2026 event carry a stated goal of $120,000 and will benefit FirefighterAid, a San Diego based 501(c)(3) that provides charitable assistance to firefighters and families in crisis and promotes awareness of firefighter health and safety issues and their impact on families and communities. The event lists sponsor support at multiple levels, including presenting sponsors such as Hilton and Gov X, division sponsors including Sycuan and AMR, a battalion sponsor listed as Local 145, and a station sponsor listed as After-Tax Wealth. The event materials reference honor teams, a Wall of Heroes, and volunteer opportunities as part of the overall program. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
