Guess what?! Great Shape! Inc. now owns its very own vehicle. Check out this beauty! This’ll save us a bundle in time, effort, and thousands of dollars in vehicle rental fees. We decided on a 2007 Nissan Caravan, which should serve our needs marvelously. Over the past 20 years we have had to rely on rentals as the primary transportation for our leadership team and smaller supplies.
Until now, it was a necessary cost. It will be a huge relief to have at least one less thing to worry about coordinating for our many projects throughout the year.
Now we’ll be travelin’ in comfort and style. The van offers a smooth ride and comfortable seating for its passengers. There is even an in-dash television (for passengers only, of course, safety first!).While JUTA and The Sandals Foundation are generous enough to provide transportation for our many volunteers, we rent vehicles for the many other activities we perform across Jamaica. This vehicle will traverse the whole island transporting people, supplies and equipment. It will surely be as hard-working as the people of Great Shape! Inc. that use it.
A special thanks to Executive Director, Papa Joe for all his wheelin’ and dealin’ and maneuvering the Jamaican buying process, and Harvey Arnce, DDS for all the support he has provided throughout this whole deal. Sweet ride!
