EOTECH Supports the Tunnel to Towers Foundation's Mission with New Partnership

Ann Arbor, MI (March 19, 2021) Firefighter Stephen Siller laid down his life to save others on September 11, 2001. The Tunnel to Towers Foundation honors Stephen's life and the military service members and first responders who continue to make the supreme sacrifice of life and limb for our country. Tunnel to Towers, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit charity, operates a Smart Home Program for catastrophically injured veterans, a Fallen First Responder Home Program and a Gold Star Family Home Program. They also host numerous fundraising events that directly benefit military and first responder families.

EOTECH is proud to stand with our law enforcement, first responders and military and is honored to announce a new partnership with the Tunnel to Towers Foundation. Each day, brave men and women put their lives on the line protecting our communities and defending our country and EOTECH believes that now more than ever, these heroes need our financial support. To kick off this partnership, EOTECH has launched a “Back the Blue Initiative” to bring attention to these patriots and generate funds to support the Tunnel to Towers Foundation’s efforts. EOTECH's "Back the Blue Initiative" features a special edition EOTECH XPS2 Holographic Weapon Sight (HWS) with a "Thin Blue Line Flag" logo. The EOTECH XPS2 is a favorite among law enforcement professionals across the country. In addition, EOTECH created a line of t-shirts, mugs, hats, and other Back the Blue items. With every purchase of an XPS2 Back the Blue optic or merchandise, EOTECH will donate twenty-five percent of its gross sales to Tunnel to Towers and other similar charities.

"Many of our staff are former law enforcement professionals, which makes this initiative even closer to our hearts. We are passionate about supporting our country's law enforcement, military and first responders," commented Lisa Kemp, Director of Marketing. "We know that America will be proud to own and use EOTECH's special Back the Blue items knowing it supports our frontline workers."

“2021 marks twenty years since my brother Stephen gave his life, and the Tunnel to Towers Foundation was created in his memory. We are proud to partner with EOTECH, a company that truly understands and appreciates the first responders and military service members who risk their lives every day in order to keep the rest of us safe,” said Foundation Chairman and CEO Frank Siller.

Mission adaptable and proudly made in the USA, the EOTECH XPS2 HWS "Back the Blue" Edition features the quick acquisition 68MOA ring and 1MOA dot, providing uncompromising speed and accuracy. Powered by an easy-to-find CR123 lithium battery, this sight requires little rail space and will provide the reliability and dependability our LE professionals demand.
