TAMPA, Fla. — RNR Tire Express received more than 10,000 nominations for its eighth annual Mother's Day Giveaway and awarded $100,000 worth of prizes to deserving mothers.
One mother, Abby Fuller of Sarasota, Fla., won the grand prize, a 2024 Buick Encore.
Fuller was nominated by her husband Isaac, who shared that his wife, a mother of two and a full-time as a professor at Ave Maria University, spends her free time volunteering with local charities in her community, including Better Together, an organization that helps fight homelessness, addiction, and unemployment.
Through her work with Better Together, Fuller has taken in children in need while their parents work to heal. She has taken in a set of 5-year-old twins, hosted a 4-year-old boy last fall and served as a host mom this Mother's Day by for a struggling mother going through the program.
She also established Sports4Good, a Sarasota-based organization that helps youth athletes and their families serve their community and leave a positive impact on the area.
"Each day, moms work tirelessly for their families in every aspect and deserve to be recognized," RNR Tire founder and CEO Larry Sutton said.
"Being able to show our collective appreciation for all they do is what makes this giveaway so special to the RNR team. It is great to see more and more nominations come in each year as this giveaway grows."
