The Central Brevard Sharing Center desperately needs a new van. The current van, used daily by the Sharing Center, is over 10 years old and has over 120,000 miles on it. The van is showing its age. In fact, just last week the van broke down again. According to Ed Price President/CEO of the Sharing Center “This is the fourth time in the past 9 months that it has needed to be repaired. This last time we literally had to push it off the road. Without a dependable vehicle we will struggle to feed the people that come to us every day in need of a meal or emergency groceries. This vehicle’s primary use is to pick up food for our Community Kitchen and Emergency Food Pantry programs. These programs have a huge impact on low income individuals and families here in our community.”
Currently the Sharing Center has raised $15,000 toward the purchase
of a new van. Scott and Terri Burcham of Merritt Island have issued
a $5,000 “Challenge Grant” to the community to help the
Sharing Center purchase a new van now. The Burcham’s will match
any special van donations made in the next 45 days up to a total of
$5,000. Meeting this “Challenge Grant” will let the Sharing
Center buy a new van now.
Please help the Sharing Center get this new van now by by sending your
tax-deductable donations to - The Central Brevard Sharing Center, P.O.
Box 3363, Cocoa FL 32924-3363. You can also make a contribution on-line
by visiting our website at sharingcenter.org .
