We got a van donated to us!!! Cuz we have the best supporters ever!!!
Meet “Walter” – a 2008 Ford E350 Super Duty cargo van who has “gone through some stuff”, lol, but will now be put to use spreading love and doing GOOD in the community.
A friend of mine out in St Louis picked him up over the Summer to help move some family member’s stuff, and after using him to bring home too many yard sale finds afterwards, her husband told her it was time to find him a new home 😂 She heard about what we were doing here in #FXBG – and voila! A perfect match!
We shipped him over, got him fixed up and street legal (he was pretty sick when we got him – poor guy!!), and now I’m officially excited to report that he’s finally ready for action : )
You can see more pictures of him here on Instagram
Be sure to stop and show him some love when you see him strolling through town! Maybe even take a selfie together! ; )
He might *look* like a creeper at the moment (I’ve already had neighbors calling and wondering what this “scary” van is doing in our neighborhood, lol…) but soon enough he’ll have a makeover to match his new heart.

A HUGE personal thanks to my friend Gwen who was the one who gave us this new van, and especially her husband for encouraging her to offload it! This van will now allow us to bring even MORE much needed items to people, as well as more variety (kids clothes!), less trips back and forth, and an even cooler thing – better marketing when we’re rolling down the streets 🙂
So thanks guys!! And really EVERYONE here reading this for all your continued support and belief in what we’re doing with this project. I couldn’t have imagined any of this at the beginning of the year, but here we are and I’m sure there will be many more fun surprises to come.
Walter and I will see you soon!
