Supporting Single Parents in Need with $5,000 Sponsorship

The 2024 Foothills Rotary Pickleball Classic was held at The Picklr in Loveland to benefit Project Self Sufficiency, a nonprofit empowering single parents with education and career development. Big O Tires supported the event with a $5,000 sponsorship.

“It was so much fun to see so much support on the courts,” said Jim Lautzenheiser, Owner of Big O Tires Fort Collins. “It was even more satisfying to see so many businesses come together to help single parents meet the needs of their families.”
