Episode 123: Project Headstrong – 50 Bikes, 50 Kids, One Stronger Community!
Guests: Hayley Terrio & Sally Bulavko
Host: Alison Shores | Get 'N' Your Business
Episode Recap
What started as a simple idea to give away bicycle helmets has grown into a community-wide mission to change lives!
On this episode of Get 'N' Your Business, host Alison Shores welcomes Hayley Terrio and Sally Bulavko of Century 21 Crest Realty to introduce Project Headstrong, an initiative of The Belonging Project.
Their mission? Provide 50 Camden County children with brand-new bicycles or scooters and custom helmets this Christmas!
Inspired by a personal childhood bicycle accident and a passion for keeping kids safe, Project Headstrong is about more than giving gifts. It's about encouraging children to get outdoors, stay active, and experience the joy and freedom of riding a bike.
Hayley and Sally also share the bigger vision behind The Belonging Project: combating loneliness, creating meaningful connections, and bringing people together throughout Camden County.
With support from the IRONMAN Foundation, local businesses, and community volunteers, they're demonstrating how a simple idea can grow into something extraordinary.
