Bonnie had a successful career in the financial services industry where she rose to the level of Senior Vice President at MasterCard Worldwide. She spent 21 years at MasterCard in new product development, promotions and sports marketing, and global cardholder services. She began her career at American Express.

In 2001, Bonnie’s husband, Eamon McEneaney, a Cantor Fitzgerald executive and a legendary member of the Lacrosse Hall of Fame, was killed in the 9/11 attacks. Shortly after, Bonnie joined VOICES as a board member and helped guide the formation of the organization to ensure that other 9/11 families had access to the information and resources they need to recover. “Bonnie is a valued member of the board and brings a unique perspective as a family member with corporate experience that has helped guide our work over the past 18 years. She recognizes both the long-term needs of the 9/11 community as well as the importance of sharing our experience with communities impacted by acts of mass violence. Speaking on behalf of all the board members we are thrilled that Bonnie will lead as Chair of VOICES board,” stated Mary Fetchet, Founding Director.

Bonnie eventually transitioned from corporate life to work on several 9/11-related initiatives. She is the author of the NY Times Bestseller, Messages: Signs, Visits and Premonitions from Loved Ones Lost on 9/11 (Harper Collins). This project took five years to complete and involved hundreds of interviews with family members and friends of 9/11 victims on the positive impact spirituality and related personal experiences had on their lives. Messages also made the NYT bestseller list for e-books.)

Prior to Messages, she created a volume of her late husband’s poetry: A Bend in the Road, (Cornell University Press), which sold out its two printings.

For the 10th anniversary of 9/11, Bonnie was an executive producer of a television documentary (A&E network), based on her book. The documentary Beyond: Messages from 9/11, aired in 44 countries. More recently, she completed an inspirational screenplay (feature film) inspired by her book.

Bonnie received her BA in International Relations from Brown University and her Master’s degree from Cornell University, and is a past recipient of the YWCA Woman of the Year award.

Using social work practices, she guided the development of programs that provide continuity of care and promote resiliency in the lives of victims' families and survivors. Today, Ms. Fetchet is dedicated to helping communities heal after tragedy in the wake of natural disasters, acts of mass violence, social or civil unrest, and domestic terrorism.

In the aftermath of 9/11, Ms. Fetchet recognized the importance of providing information and a wide range of programs for all those impacted by 9/11. As a family member, she was committed to helping families through the emotional, but therapeutic process of commemorating the lives and stories of 9/11. Under her leadership VOICES worked with over 1,600 families to create the Living Memorial Project. This online collection of over 87,000 photographs and personal keepsakes, documents the nearly 3,000 lives lost and stories of survivors and is a core component of the In Memoriam exhibit at the 9/11 Memorial & Museum in New York City.

Ms. Fetchet is a strong advocate for the rights of victim's families and survivors, and public policy reforms to make the country safer. As a 9/11 family member, she advocated for an appropriate process for the notification of human remains, the Victim's Compensation Fund and the creation of the 9/11 Memorial at the World Trade Center site. She was also instrumental in campaigning for the 9/11 Commission and the implementation of reforms based on their recommendations. She testified before the 9/11 Commission and the U.S. Congress on five occasions.

More recently, Ms. Fetchet is assisting communities impacted by other tragedies by sharing lessons learned through VOICES' nineteen years of experience. In 2013 she implemented a project, funded by the U.S. Department of Justice, to define best practices in preparing for and responding to acts of mass violence. Interviews were conducted with those who responded to the 9/11 attacks on the Pentagon and New York City, the Oklahoma City bombing and the shootings at Virginia Tech, Northern Illinois University and Tucson, Arizona. The project culminated in the creation of a Resource Kit that is available to communities nationally. Ms. Fetchet also initiated a research project funded by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation to quantify the needs of victims' families and survivors.

An expert on the long-term needs of victims and survivors, mental health care, preparedness, and national security reforms, she has made hundreds of appearances on national television and at conferences in the U.S. and abroad, and contributes regularly to print and radio.

Matt McCauley’s legal practice is focused upon the representation of September 11th first responders who were injured or have developed illnesses due to their invaluable service at Ground Zero, Fresh Kills, and other disaster sites during the rescue and recovery operations following the 9/11 attack, and civilian survivors who lived or worked in lower Manhattan and are now afflicted with some of the same post-attack diseases.

Together with some of the country’s best advocates, Matt lobbied feverishly for the passage of the James Zadroga 9/11 Health and Compensation Act of 2010, affording benefits and compensation to ill and injured first responders and civilian survivors through the creation of the September 11th Victim Compensation Fund, administered by the U.S. Department of Justice. Matt and other dedicated advocates of the crucial legislation successfully redoubled their efforts and got Congress to reauthorize the “Zadroga Act” in 2015, and then again in 2019 with the reauthorization of the Never Forget the Heroes: James Zadroga, Ray Pfeifer, and Luis Alvarez Permanent Authorization of the September 11th Victim Compensation Fund Act. Currently, as part of a tireless and relentless team, he is working to obtain the passage of the 9/11 Responder and Survivor Health Funding Correction Act of 2025 before the 119th Congress.

His tireless and unwavering motivation to complete any mission before him has been ever present. Matt entered the NYPD Police Academy in October 1990 at the age of twenty, having to postpone the junior year at Iona College he had just begun. Prior to entering the police academy, Matt had already become a NYS Paramedic, an accomplishment he completed while concurrently attending Iona College as well. He would eventually return to Iona to complete his BS in Criminal Justice in 1996 while a member of the NYPD working in the 32nd Precinct and continuing to work as Paramedic. Matt would continue his education at Pace University School of Law, graduating in May 2001. Again, during this time he continued to work within the NYPD and also as a Paramedic. It was during Law School that he had opportunities to work within the New York County District Attorney’s Office on domestic violence prosecutions as well as working within the Unites States Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York on terrorism prosecutions prior to 9/11.

The next chapter of Matt’s life, like for so many others, would be forever tied to 9/11/2001. Upon graduation from Law School in May 2001, Matt decided he wanted to take a shot at landing a job within the US Attorney’s Office to work on terrorism prosecutions. He retired from NYPD, turned down an offer from Robert Morgenthau to join the Manhattan DA’s office and accepted a coveted federal clerkship with the United States Court of Appeals – Second Circuit, with the hopes of it being a spring board back to the US Attorney’s Office directly next door. While he would have the opportunity to work on important cases with highly respected Second Circuit Judges, including United States Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor, it was another matter that would change things quickly. Sitting in his office on the 6th Floor or Foley Square facing Centre Street on the morning of 9/11, Matt would hear and feel the first plane go by as it was about to strike the North Tower of the World Trade Center and, a short time later while looking out the window and on the phone trying to find out where he was going to meet first responders already heading to the location, he would watch the South Tower get struck, which sent a ripple of heat and concussion past Foley Square. Still a Paramedic and only recently retired from NYPD, Matt worked at Ground Zero during the rescue and recovery efforts in the aftermath of that day. In the Second Circuit he would also work on legal issues associated with quickly changing laws in the aftermath.

After leaving the Second Circuit, while Matt would not have the opportunity to pursue the work on terrorism prosecutions he had wanted to do, he would eventually be drawn more and more to important issues surrounding the 9/11 attacks and the rescue and recovery efforts, specifically the First Responders who were now becoming ill. Matt was part of an important team of first responders who lobbied Congress for the successful passage of the James Zadroga 9/11 Health and Compensation Act of 2010. This work was not over and this team would have to go back for reauthorizations and extensions in 2015 and 2019. While a constant quiet presence seen in the background at press conferences, upfront Matt ran teams with John Feal, Jon Stewart and many other advocates in meetings with numerous members of Congress including then Senate Majority Leader Senator Mitch McConnell. As an NYPD police academy classmate with Detective Luis Alvarez, Matt had the honor of working with him, Jon Stewart and the other presenters on what would be an exceptionally emotional and forever memorable day of testimony before Congress in 2019, again being a quite constantly working presence in the background of that hearing. While mourning the death of his friend Louie, Matt was present with his son Finn in the Rose Garden at the White House when the President signed the Never Forget the Heroes: James Zadroga, Ray Pfeifer and Luis Alvarez Permanent Authorization of the September 11th Victim Compensation Fund.

Matt continues to purse the mission of others that have been lost to 9/11 illnesses and remains a steadfast follower of the words of his friend and fellow advocate, the late FDNY Firefighter Ray Pfeifer, who would say “Always Do the Right Thing, Even When Nobody is Looking.”
