Jose Daniels, president of the National September 11 Memorial & Museum, tells the New York Post that officials found 99 $100 bills and five 20s in the box on Tuesday night.
The box hangs on a wall at the 9/11 memorial preview site.
Memorial officials believe the money was slipped into the box sometime between 5 p.m. – when the box was last checked – and 7 p.m., when the preview site closed.
Officials believe the donation was made by a single person. They say the bills appeared to have been recently withdrawn from the bank.
Daniels said officials would love to know the donor’s name so they could say thank you.

Several years ago, an African-American man came to our Shul before Mincha, with $100.00 in cash; he told us that he wanted to donate the money to the Shul. He gave the money to a member, and left. We never found out who the individual was.
