A university library, led by its own trauma-surviving manager, stepped in to archive the collection, now totaling over 2,000 heartfelt messages. Interns are carefully digitizing each piece with a $15,000 grant, ensuring both physical and digital preservation for future historians. This labor of love—taking over 100 hours to launch—stands as a testament to human resilience and the power of connection in the face of disaster.
