FOUNDATION: Thanking Tunnels to Towers

I want to recognize the Tunnels to Towers Foundation for the incredible work they do to support first responders, veterans and their families — including right here in Coeur d’Alene. Earlier this year, the foundation stepped up to help local firefighters and their families with vital assistance, showing that their mission truly reaches into our own community.

Tunnels to Towers is one of the most trustworthy charities out there, with 95% of every dollar donated going directly to programs — not overhead. Their work provides mortgage-free homes, critical housing needs and support to those who’ve sacrificed so much to protect others.

For only $11 a month, anyone can be part of this effort and make a lasting difference in the lives of our heroes. It’s a small amount, but it means the world to those who’ve risked everything for us.

I hope more people here in North Idaho will join me in supporting Tunnels to Towers and help them continue their life-changing work for first responders, veterans, and their families. To learn more or to donate, visit www.t2t.org.
