🎗️Bus Fare Give Back Project 🚌

Target to be raised $525.00 = Bus Fare for 150 Commuters

In a mere five weeks, the transformative RCBS Bus Fare Give Back Project will unfold. On the poignant day of September 15th, 2023, our modest yet profound gesture of compassion will come to life – a day dedicated to giving back through bus fare.

We humbly request contributions, a mere $35.00, from our esteemed club members. This nominal amount will extend the gift of transportation to ten deserving commuters, ushering them towards their aspirations. It's an embodiment of empathy, an opportunity to be the conduit of change.

In the early hours, starting from 6 A.M., our benevolent mission will manifest as volunteers gather at the bus terminal. With each bus fare gifted, we will pave the way for progress, one ride at a time.

Watch this space for forthcoming details, as together, we sculpt this act of charity into a testament of humanity's unity and unwavering benevolence.
