On Friday, Dec. 6, 2013, American Red Cross case managers attended a presentation by representatives from the Stephen Siller Tunnel to Towers Foundation. Attendees learned about the ways Tunnel to Towers is helping people affected by Sandy, how to access their services and other resources the organization has available.

In October, the Red Cross awarded a $721,550 grant to Tunnel to Towers so the group could hire local, skilled labor – plumbers, electricians and carpenters – to help repair up to 110 homes in the East and South Shores of Staten Island.
