We give monthly to tunnel to towers. It is a great organization to help our brave men and women who have been killed or have long term or life long injuries. It’s only $11.00 a month.
Excellent job by Bobby McGuire (FDNY Boxing Team) for organizing the “Thrilla In Camilla” Boxing event,& raising $30,000 for “ Tunnel to Towers” Charity.
