Missing Children’s Day is May 25
 
May 25 was declared Missing Children’s Day by President Ronald Reagan in 1983 to commemorate the disappearance of Etan Patz. On May 25, 1979, Etan, then 6 years old, vanished without a trace on his way to catch his school bus, two blocks away from his home in New York. Etan was never found.

On this day, we remember both our nation’s missing children and the families that struggle with the pain of not knowing where their loved one is or if they will ever see him or her again.

Missing Children’s Day not only symbolizes a day of remembrance for those children who have vanished from our homes, but also a day of hope.

Please join us by remembering those children who have gone missing and consider a donation to the Vanished Children’s Alliance to help us help make homecomings possible.
