The
Tunnel to Towers Foundation today announced a
continuation of its partnership with
Yuengling Brewery.
Yuengling initiated their support of Tunnel to Towers’
Homeless Veteran Program and In the Line of Duty Programs
earlier this year.
The Brewery, in collaboration with its Distributor Partners in
New Jersey and New York City, will continue raising awareness with
Yuengling Fans, its valued consumers, retailers, and Beer Industry
professionals through a major fundraising initiative in the
Northeast region. The campaign will run from August 1 through
November 30, 2024.
“As the Yuengling family and team reflect on the Siller family,
Stephen Siller’s story, and the guiding philosophy of St. Francis
of Assisi, “while we have time, let us do good” we recognize it as
a wonderful reminder of how we can help make a difference. We know
we’re contributing to something truly special. The wide expansion
of support that T2T has given to Veterans and First Responders is
beyond amazing. May our efforts help multiply contributions and
awareness along with all your excellent partners,” said Dick
Yuengling, CEO & Owner of D.G. Yuengling & Son,
Inc.
“The Tunnel to Towers Foundation is incredibly grateful to have
the support of the Yuengling team, a company with a long history of
supporting America’s heroes. Their generosity will enable us to
move forward in our work to eradicate homelessness amongst the
veteran community, to provide for military and first responder
families, and educate future generations about the heroism shown on
September 11, 2001,” said Frank Siller, Chairman & CEO of
the Tunnel to Towers Foundation.
