A ribbon cutting was held April 22, 2026, with members of the Networking/Events Committee, who enjoyed the opportunity to see the new van purchased with CAR Cares contributions for Beyond 26. Dirk Bakhuyzen, Executive Director and Elise Mlnarik, Associate Director of Beyond 26, brought the van to the CARWM office for the event. Thanks to the generosity of CARWM members, over $30,000 was raised toward the purchase of the 15-passenger van. Beyond 26 works to find employment opportunities for adults with disabilities, and the van will help transport the adults to their work places. https://carwm.com/car-cares-campaign-ribbon-cutting-beyond26-van/
