Staten Island, NY, April 04, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Tunnel to Towers Foundation announced today that it has received a generous unrestricted $15 million donation from MacKenzie Scott to advance its mission to support America’s military and first responders who risk life and limb for our safety every day.
