There's nothing cooler than being connected to amazing organizations that are so passionate, so giving, so dedicated.
Families Behind the Badge Children's Foundation is no exception.
Deb Buenaga is from Preston's March for Energy—
a wonderful non-profit org we recently worked with—was so kind to reach out earlier this year and introduce us to Mark, the co-founder of
Families Behind the Badge Children's Foundation.FBBCF have not only supported
Preston's March for 8 years—and other local children organizations—but are also dedicated to supporting the families of fallen and critically injured first responders. That's something!Since January, we've been working with FBBCF behind the scenes to ensure your involvement in worthwhile. As they began planning for the 35th Annual The Ben to The Shore Bike Tour, we concluded that a donation of an EBT Electric Mountain Bike was the perfect way for the organization to raffle it off and gain donations (spoiler: they received nearly $5,000 in raffle donations!).
Fast forward to July 8th, Mark and Ashley (FBBCF's Program Manager), made their way to Electric Bike Technologies where we got to know one-another over lunch, pulled the raffle winner and made a life-long partnership.
We're truly honored we were able to contribute to this wonderful cause. Cheers to many more connections and donations to life-changing causes like Preston's March and FBBCF!
Best of luck to everyone participating in the the Ben to The Shore Bike Tour! Our very own Jim Dewan from EBT will be one of the many cycling for the cause.
