WHAT: Tunnel to Towers Run Savannah honors the legacy of FDNY firefighter, Stephen Siller, along with his 342 FDNY brothers who sacrificed their lives in the line of duty on September 11, 2001. Public service industry workers, corporate teams and the public are encouraged to register for this patriotic event, which will also be attended by officers of the FDNY.

Tunnel to Towers Run Savannah will also feature The Siller Cup Firefighter Challenge. Teams of four firefighters or more from across the nation are expected in Savannah to compete in this year’s race for a chance to take home a traveling trophy from last year’s winner, Bluffton Township Fire Department, and have the opportunity to defend their title in 2015.

All proceeds from the Tunnel to Towers Run Savannah benefit the Foundation’s various programs including Building for America’s Bravest, which constructs specially adapted smart homes for our nation’s most catastrophically injured service members. By participating, we take a solid role in continuing Stephen’s legacy by supporting our nation’s first responders and service members. 

The T2T Run Savannah is also looking for children to be involved in Team 343, a special memorial tribute on race day that will honor each of the 343 fallen FDNY firefighters. To sign your child up for this special tribute, please contact the committee at [email protected].
