Second Chances Garage

I’ve known Rick and Cindy Trawick for 20 years.
They are old friends.
Good friends.
Gifted, passionate people.

We’ve done church together.
Music together.
They’re my informal IT consultants.
Rick is my automotive adviser.

Their new passion is SECOND CHANCES GARAGE.

From a rented facility on Market Street in Frederick
they accept donated vehicles,
fix them,
and give them
to persons and families who really need them.

A simple concept, really.

They work with
the Religious Coalition for Emergency Human Need
and other community-based non-profits
to find persons who truly qualify
for this type of assistance.

Cindy is a financial counselor.
She meets with potential recipients,
giving sound budget advice.

To a large extent, this new ministry
has been funded by the Trawicks themselves,
to the tune of $11,500.00.

It’s a worthy endeavor that deserves to succeed,
and it needs your support.

Here’s the website.

(Full Disclosure:
Rick asked me to join their board of directors,
and I’ve been glad to do so.)
