Project B.I.K.E.

We were able to contribute to a wonderful program Project B.I.K.E., which stands for Believe in Kids Excelling. This is an incentive based program for at-risk elementary school kids. The goal is to provide students who excel in academics and personal growth with a new bicycle. We partnered with the Lynchburg Police Department, Lynchburg Sheriff's Department, Lynchburg Fire & Rescue, One Community One Voice Lynchburg, and others.

Claire Parker Foundation

We were able to donate a Honda CR-V to the Claire Parker Foundation to aide them in their mission to deliver Care Boxes to hospitals across the U.S. for children and families who's lives have been touched by pediatric cancer. OuttaSight Window Tinting & Vehicle Wraps was gracious enough to donate their time and materials to wrap it as well. A huge thank you to them and to Dana Marr of Wooldridge Heating Air & Electrical for helping us to make this happen.
