Project Report | Feb 8, 2021
YOU DID IT !!!

By Nikki Buxton | Managing Director

Getting the keys
Getting the keys

BBR is back on the road!

When Maryann Izzarelli launched this special fundraiser, I thought she was dreaming. Never in our wildlist dreams did we imagine she would reach our goal. But last Thursday we were handed the keys to our band new Nissan Frontier truck. It’s more than we could ever have wished for, and it’s all thanks to you!!

We are now guaranteed 5 years of worry-free motoring. 5 whole years knowing that the BBR Rescue Truck will not itself need rescuing. We're working on the branding for the doors and tailgate, and will share photos of that as soon as we have them.

A massive, massive thank you to everyone that was involved in getting us to this stage: from Maryann for being the first to dream big; to our Government Finance Ministry and the Forest Department for supporting the tax and duty waiver; to Bravo Motors for their generous discount; our members and supporters and our social media advocates, and of course to every single person that donated funds. We would still be walking if it weren’t for you!

The words ‘thank you’, as usual, don’t come close to conveying our gratitude, but you will see our appreciation reflected in every little feathered face we rescue for years to come.

With warmest regards as always,

Nikki & the BBR Team
