The Plandome Fire Department has run in the Tunnel to Towers event each year for the past several years, and we use this event to raise money for the Stephen Siller Tunnel to Towers Foundation. We raised over $95,000 in 2023 for the Stephen Siller Foundation! Please give generously and help us help the Foundation again this year!
This is NOT a fundraiser for the Plandome Fire Department. The Tunnel to Towers foundation uses donations to support families of fallen firefighters, military and police.
The Siller Family started the Stephen Siller Tunnel to Towers Foundation to honor the memory of their brother, Stephen, a New York City firefighter (FDNY) who lost his life on September 11, 2001.
Firefighter Stephen Siller lost his life while saving others. In his memory, the Tunnel to Towers Foundation developed the In the Line of Duty Program to honor the heroes that risk their lives every day.
Built upon the mantra, “While we have time, LET US DO GOOD,” the Foundation supports our nation’s fallen and catastrophically injured first responders, military heroes and their families.
The Gold Star Family Home Program honors those who have made the ultimate sacrifice while serving our country by providing the surviving spouses and young children with a brand new, mortgage-free home.
The Smart Home Program provides mortgage-free smart homes to our most catastrophically injured service members. Each home is custom designed to address the unique needs of each individual.
The Fallen First Responder Home Program pays off the remaining mortgages for families left behind when a firefighter or police officer is killed in the line of duty. Upon hearing news of the tragic loss of a first responder, Tunnel to Towers deploys a rapid response team to immediately provide support to the family.
Your hard work on behalf of the Foundation helps us provide the support that the families of our military and first responders so desperately need.
