Rebecca left everything
behind in California to find safety for her and her 2 teenage children, one who
has severe health problems. She drove to Clearwater, Florida in an old 1995 Mercury
Tracer with close to 200,000 miles that died when she arrived.
Thankfully, she's been able to stay with her mother while looking
for work, which she has since found.
But in order to get to her job, she needed a vehicle, as she was
spending all of her money on UBER to get back and forth to work.
With funding provided by Raymond James Bank through our Build-A-Car Program, Wheels was
able to provide a vehicle. Rebecca was presented with her low mileage, 2002
Oldsmobile Aurora at the Raymond James corporate offices in Clearwater.
It was a most memorable day for Rebecca and the employees of
Raymond James Bank who got to see firsthand the great work their employer does
for the community and be a part of it.
The funding to "Build-A-Car" was provided
by Raymond James Bank, a Wheels partner, facilitated through our
Board member, Noble Fowler. Thank you to the Raymond James Bank team for making
it such a special day for all of us.
