BPM Half A World Away

We’ve been involved for a while now with an awesome organization called The Hope Venture.  They do vital work with the poor and needy in places like Kenya and India.  Anderson has been sponsoring the education of a couple of these kids in Kenya, Victor and Joyce, and we just got a neat email showing their first term report cards!  Pretty cool stuff.  Check them out here and here.

Your contribution day in and day out put the funds into our 501c3 and into these kids’ lives.  Thanks for all you do to make stories like this one possible.

Food Bank 50 Million Meals

We’re pretty excited to be partnered with the Food Bank of Lincoln to help them reach their amazing milestone of 50 million meals served. From now until the end of April, Anderson will match each donation given to the Food Bank. That means each dollar goes twice as far!

If you (or your customers) want to get involved, please see the banner on the website.  Also, please share this with your friends!  We want to get as many people on board as possible.  To share on Facebook, just use this link.

UCP Chili Cook-Off

We wrapped up an awesome weekend in St. Joseph at an annual chili cook-off competition to benefit the local United Cerebral Palsy. Contributions came in from customers buying vehicles, from employees, and from individuals at the cook-off. We were able to raise a final amount of over $8,500 (even more than was indicated at the time of this filming).  Awesome work team! Thanks to everyone who gave of their time to make a difference.

Fahri and family can use your help!  As some of you know, Fahri Govori, a Sales Advisor in Lincoln, was recently diagnosed with cancer.  After some further testing, he received the good news that the cancer has not spread beyond where it was originally detected.  Your thoughts and prayers are very much appreciated.

He started chemo yesterday, and is currently home resting.  During this time, you could help out greatly by signing up to bring meals for the family.  A sign up sheet is in the sales tower at the Lincoln north store.  Fahri’s contact info is below, and please call/text the day of to confirm a time for delivery at their home address.

All meals would be for 4 people: Fahri, his wife, and the two children ages 2.5 and 1.  Some meal ideas:

  • Chicken noodle soup
  • Pizza delivery

Thanks for helping out!
