Two Way Radio Gear, is grateful to be supporting Taylor's battle against a Paraganglioma Tumor. This past November, Taylor started to experience unusual medical symptoms and scheduled a Doctor's appointment. After her appointment, Taylor received the most unexpected news, she was diagnosed with a rare tumor known as Paraganglioma. This rare tumor affects 2-8 people out of 1 million people every year. And after her diagnosis, it was determined that Taylor would need surgery. 

Hearing Taylor's story not only captured our attention, but it also felt as though we were called to support her in any way we could. Therefore, we have donated to her GoFundMe to help assist with her medical expenses and care post surgery. We are so hopeful that with the help of her husband, family, and church, Taylor's medical journey is filled with support and strength. 

This month to celebrate the Thanksgiving holiday we have partnered with Pace Center for Girls, Treasure Coast. Their annual, "Pace" Giving event was filled with a wonderful Thanksgiving meal as well as an afternoon of laughter and joy. These young ladies and staff were treated to a catered lunch from us here at Two Way Radio Gear, and it was an absolute pleasure. We not only learned more about Pace Center for Girls, but also learned about the young ladies that attend.

We are so thankful they allowed us to be apart of their "Pace" Giving and we hope the staff and young ladies enjoy their holiday. 

The TuTu Project began in 2003, due to Linda Carey's breast cancer diagnosis. Linda did beat her first battle with breast cancer, however 3 years later she would be diagnosed once more. During both battles Linda has had the support of her family, friends, and husband, Bob Carey. Bob has stated, "So many people in Linda’s life, myself included, have been in awe of the power, beauty, and spirit she carries with her, despite everything that’s going on within her." Therefore, inspired by his wife's strength Bob launched the TuTu project in 2006. He also published a novel entitled, "Ballerina" which captured anyone who was affected by breast cancer. Bob wanted to shed light on the support fighters and survivors of breast cancer need everyday. 

Their mission statement at The TuTu Project is to raise awareness and funds for both men and women as well as their families to help assist with the financial stresses that come alongside breast cancer diagnosis. Therefore, this month we have donated to this special organization. We know that the battle with breast cancer is a long and hard one, but please know we support you. We are so pleased for our ability to donate to this special organization, especially during breast cancer awareness month. To each and every fighter and survivor or breast cancer please know that you are not alone, and are supported. 

For almost 20 years, parents, children, and schools have visited Jaycee Park Playground. From sliding down slides, to swinging on the swings, and climbing the monkey bars and playing tag, this park has seen it all. However, as time passes so does recreational material. Located in Fort Pierce, FL. Jaycee Park has nearly 200,000 visitors every year and after all of that play time, it's time for Jaycee Park to get a new design.

Therefore, this month we have donated to the rebuilding of Jaycee Park. We are excited knowing that this park located within our community, will be renovated for Children to play on safely and excitedly. 

Two Way Radio Gear is pleased to share, that for the month of August we donated Crocs to the wonderful organization, Treasure Coast Girls Coalition. Located in Gifford, FL. Treasure Coast Girls Coalition, aims to help young ladies from the ages of 9-18 achieve their goals and fulfill their potential. Their mission is to encourage and empower these young ladies through STEM curriculum. And this program serves as a way to raise up a new generation of entrepreneurs, and leaders within the community. 

Therefore, we wanted to gift these young ladies with something just as unique and special as them. We donated 30 pairs of Crocs, so that each young lady may receive a pair, as well as jibbitz to personalize them into their own. Seeing each of those young ladies smiling was such a rewarding experience. And, we are so thankful that we can give back to our community in unimaginable ways. 

A kind message from Ms. Edwards, the Executive Director of Treasure Coast Girls Coalition, "Thanks so much for your kindness and generosity today" 

In honor of Special Operations Chief Aaron Vaughn, Operation 300 is known for providing camps and mentorship programs for children of soldiers who have fallen in service of the United States. Since 2012, Operation 300 has provided thousands of kids, as well as their families, with lifelong memories that preserve the legacy of the sacrifice their family member has made.

Two Way Radio Gear was fortunate enough to sponsor their Saturday Night Pizza Party that happens every camp. We are immensely blessed and fortunate to partner with such a great organization and to give back to the families of veterans that have sacrificed their lives in service of our country.

On June 17, 2022, we were given an amazing opportunity to visit the The Source Homeless Outreach Ministries. The Source Homeless Outreach Ministries’ purpose and vision is "working to transform lives in our community." Located in Vero Beach, Florida, this wonderful organization serves three hot meals a day, provides mental health services, culinary training, as well as full usage of their laundry facility. The Source aims to support and serve the community in every way possible.

On this day, we prepared twenty Father's Day bags filled with hygienic products to donate to any father that stepped through their doors. While we know everyday is Father's Day, we wanted every dad to feel celebrated. For this reason and so many more, we were grateful that The Source allowed us to visit. We are so happy to know that we made twenty dads smile on their special day.

Care Net Pregnancy Services of the Treasure Coast has been assisting expectant mothers and fathers for over 31 years. Their services include free ultrasounds, counseling and support for anyone who steps through their doors. Care Net wants every expectant mother to know that they are not alone and that they have a village supporting them.

And it is for these wonderful reasons and more we decided to donate six Mother's Day baskets to this amazing organization. We know that Mother's Day is everyday, but we also know mother's deserve to feel special on this day most of all. Therefore, we felt Care Net would let every expectant mother know just how special they are. We are very delighted to know that we helped six soon to be mothers feel bliss. 

Two Way Radio Gear is happy announce that for the month of April we have collaborated with Northwood Church. Located in Keller, Texas, this congregation is dedicated to offering support and guidance to anyone that walks through the doors. 

Therefore, we decided to donate eight radios to this wonderful congregation for their “Revive” program. Revive is a respite care program that occurs twice a month and is for families and children who are special needs. This wonderful program that is constructed of 100 volunteers provides parents with 3-4 hours of time to themselves. Parents use these hours to take much needed rest in order return refreshed and jump back into the fray. This program is very highly sought after as there is often a waiting list for entry. We are so thankful to now be a part of this wonderful program as we enjoy supporting communities and families across the country.
