Foundation of BCC Welcomes Newest Donor

The Cape Fear Cruisers Car Club is on the move in more ways than one. They hold annual car shows involving their 240-person member base and contribute $20,000 annually to community organizations. Club members Peggy Lilly, President; Bob Lilly; Rich Largent, Vice President; Jackie Winters, Secretary; and Jim Hunt, Board Member, recently visited The Foundation of BCC with their first-ever donation of $2,500. This gift will fund student scholarships.

“What a wonderful holiday surprise to welcome the Cape Fear Cruisers Club to campus last week,” said Foundation of BCC Executive Director Teresa Nelson. “We are blessed to have the support of so many wonderful community organizations and are thrilled to welcome the Cruisers Club to the family. We appreciate their generosity and look forward to working together for many years.”

Established in 2006 with a handful of members, the Cape Fear Cruisers Car Club comprises 134 households, 240 members, and 190 vehicles. They hold two annual car and truck shows in downtown Southport in late April and October. To learn more, visit their website at https://capefearcruisers.com/.
