REC's small 14-passenger buses have become an important component of programming at Riverside Educational Center and sponsors, like GJ Horizon Sunrise Rotary, lighten the burden of maintaining those buses, helping REC drive our kids to success.
REC buses allow us to provide a safe, after-program ride home for many of our students whose parents are not able to pick them up. Just that use alone relieves a lot of stress for the family and allows their child to participate regularly in REC's quality after-school programming. These kids may not normally have access to REC programming without the transportation we provide.
REC also uses the buses to transport students to a variety of enrichment activities. Simple things like a visit to EUREKA! McConnell Science Museum, a nature hike in the Colorado National Monument, learning to ride a bike on the river trail, cross-country skiing for the first time on the Grand Mesa, or facing the challenge of rock climbing at the climbing gym are all experiences that help REC kids grow towards personal success.
But we can't bring them to those experiences or get them home from tutoring without working buses.
How can you help? You can be a part of our mission to impact kids who need it most AND gain exposure for your business by sponsoring a REC bus!
REC buses travel almost 3500 miles per year during busy times along high-visibility routes. Your logo will be seen by a broad audience throughout the Grand Valley while you support a critical need for REC programming. Sponsorhips requires an annual donation and dollar amount varies according to where you prefer to have your logo placed on the bus.

Thank you Grand Junction Horizon Sunrise Rotary club for sponsoring REC bus number 4 for another year! |
