Welcome back to another episode of Untold Valor! This week, we are joined by the Director of Community Engagement and Development at Sauers Cares, Danielle Fox. She’s here to share more about their new initiative, Drive and Thrive, which is dedicated to uplifting individuals and families facing life’s toughest challenges by providing crucial transportation support.

For veterans, who may already face unique adversities, having dependable transportation can be a game-changer. From Sauers’ quarterly free car clinics to their fuel assistance program, Drive and Thrive is only getting started, and it's already having a profound impact. If this mission resonates with you, be sure to listen until the end to find out how you can lend a helping hand!
