8th annual paintball for heroes

FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 19, 2025

 
 

MISSION OBJECTIVE:

You're Invited!

Join us for the 8th Annual Paintball for Heroes event on Friday, September 19th at Special Forces Paintball in Buffalo, MN!

This action-packed day isn't just about paintball—it's about giving back. Each year, we rally together for some friendly fire on the field while raising funds for causes that matter. Last year, thanks to your support, we raised an incredible $22,000 for the Tunnel to Towers Foundation—an organization dedicated to building mortgage-free smart homes for our nation’s most severely injured veterans and first responders.

We had such a great experience working with T2T that we’re proud to partner with them again this year. So grab your gear, rally your squad, and get ready to dive into the ultimate paintball battle—all while supporting a truly heroic cause!

SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITIES

We’d be honored to have your support! Paintball for Heroes was created by All Around as a way to give back to our community—especially to those who have selflessly served our country. We’re proud to partner with the Tunnel to Towers Foundation because we truly believe in its mission. This is our signature annual fundraising event, drawing between 50 and 70 attendees each year. We offer a range of sponsorship opportunities that not only support a great cause, but also give your business meaningful exposure within the community.

If a sponsorship isn’t the right fit for you right now, there are still plenty of ways to get involved! You can sign up to play paintball, become a volunteer event ambassador, or simply make a donation of any amount. We're also accepting silent auction items, which will help us raise more donations for this amazing foundation.

Tunnel to Towers Foundation

Mission: The Tunnel to Towers Foundation is dedicated to honoring the sacrifice of FDNY Firefighter Stephen Siller, who laid down his life to save others on September 11, 2001. For 20 years the Foundation has supported our nation’s first responders and veterans by providing these heroes and the families they leave behind with mortgage-free homes.

The Tunnel to Towers Foundation builds mortgage-free smart homes for our most catastrophically injured veterans and first responders. Each home is designed to address the unique needs of each individual. Smart homes host a myriad of features such as automated doors and lighting, wider halls and doorways, special showers to accommodate wheelchairs, automatic door openers, cabinets, counters, and stove tops that can be raised and lowered, backup generators, and central heating and air conditioning systems that can be controlled by tablets. These homes help our most severely injured veterans and first responders to reclaim their day-to-day independence.
