A Rockland County restaurant is holding a special tribute in lights to honor of the victims of Sept. 11.

The Dawg House in Nanuet will also be using this year's anniversary to fund the Tunnel to Towers Foundation, an organization that assists wounded veterans.

"First and foremost, we want to make sure we honor our American promise that no one is ever forgotten," says The Dawg House owner James Barracato. "We have a lot of EMTs, firefighters, police who come in that support out business and community. We wanted to make sure that no one is ever forgotten and do what we can to help such a great cause like Tunnel to Towers."

Carolyn Higgins, who helped organize the event, says she thinks "it's very important to honor the pain that still sits in the hearts of the people who lost people."

From today through Wednesday, 10% of The Dawg House sales will go to the Tunnels to Towers Foundation.
