This is an exciting week for us here at REVO! This week, we are working together with The People's Fleet. TPF is a program directed and empowered by Ford Motor Company.
Let's start...
About The People's Fleet
At Ford Motor Company, we know this generation is inspired; inspired not only to do things differently but inspired to create a new road for ideas that were previously thought impossible.
We want to help further this movement! The People's Fleet allows us to come alongside this new generation of community leaders. We are starting small and we're going to learn as much as we can; for us, this is just the beginning.
How will they help..?
The People's Fleet will be supporting the Los Angeles community in three ways:
1. Meet the transportation needs of 12 local organizations by equipping them with a 2011 Ford Fiesta, a team of storytellers, a mini-video camera and fuel for their journey. 4 organizations will receive a Program Car for 8 weeks while 8 different organizations will be able to apply for and share the Project Car for 1-week periods of time during the program.
2. Build a larger community around these organizations’ missions through professional quality videos, an online platform, and our network.
3. Petition the LA community, through the Your LA platform, to submit solutions to challenges that are not being met in LA; the top idea at the end of the program will be awarded $10,000 grant to put the idea into motion.
So far here are the other organizations involved:
1. Habitat for Humanity OC
2. KidWorks
3. Krochet Kids INTL
4. LiNK Global
5. Red Eye Inc
So stay tuned for Nina's adventure with the REVO Ford Fiesta along with The People's Fleet!!!
