Two Hardworking Individuals Receive the Gift of Transportation

Two individuals served through Community Action Partnership of Lancaster and Saunders Counties (www.communityactionatwork.org) have begun the new year with reliable transportation thanks to the generosity of Tracy’s Collision Center (tracysbodyshop.com) and their partners.

This year marks the 12th year that the team at Tracy’s has donated their time and talents to restore and refurbish two vehicles for two local individuals served through Community Action who are working hard to get out of poverty and reach economic stability. The first step in making this effort possible is to identify vehicles that – with a bit of repair work – would be good, safe vehicles for two individuals. Tracy’s turned to Farm Bureau Financial Services for help in donating the cars.

In addition to restoring the vehicles back to road-ready status, Tracy’s also partners with local businesses to pay the title and licensing fees for the vehicles. They even purchase gifts for individuals receiving the vehicles – often filling the trunks with clothing, toys, and other items that always bring joy to recipients. This effort signifies not only Tracy’s passion, but their thanks to the Lincoln community.

“Tracy’s Collision Center and its employees are grateful for the thousands of customers in the Lincoln community who have trusted us with their collision repair needs over the past year,” said Tom Tracy, Owner of Tracy’s Collision Center. “As an extension of that gratitude it is with great pleasure that we give back to the community by providing the gift of transportation for two deserving families this year.”

Community Action is thankful for Tracy’s and their partners for continuing to embody the spirit of its mission to empower people living in poverty to reach economic stability through this effort.
