Take a Look at What These Great Hampton Roads Charities are Doing for Our Community! Charitable Support for Charities
The HRCT team is sold on the idea of helping people who are helping other people.
As a result, we invest time, human resources, and resources into ongoing charity work and charitable events that create positive change within our community and across our world. We believe that the people who work in and advocate for these charities are the heroes of our community, and we are honored to play a small role in the ongoing success of their organizations and the fulfillment of their missions.
We want to encourage you to check out these stellar charities and find a way that you can be involved in helping them make our world a better place.

The Portsmouth Service League Touch a Truck
Touch-a-Truck is a fundraising activity that gives children the chance to climb on, touch, and honk the horns of some of the kids favorite types of trucks and vehicles. They also get to interact with their hometown heroes, and at the same time, they learn how these vehicles work to serve the Hampton Roads community!

HRCT Supports The Mayflower Food Drive
The holidays are always a time of giving, and the HRCT family knew that there were plenty of families in need in their community. Each year, millions of children go without food when they are out of school, with families unable to provide nutritious sustenance that will aid in healthy minds and bodies as they grow. The Foodbank of Southeastern Virginia and the Eastern Shore was delighted to have the support of the HRCT family this holiday season, as they delivered a generous donation to the local charity.
