Annual Foundation Service Project

Since 2008, the IBTTA Service Project has been an integral part of the Maintenance, Engineering & Roadway Operations Workshop, bringing together volunteers to support local communities. Each year, IBTTA partners with a local organization in the city hosting the Workshop to make a positive impact.

In 2024, the Foundation Service Project collaborated with the Community Cooperative in Ft. Myers, Florida). IBTTA volunteers dedicated their time to supporting Community Cooperative's mission of eliminating hunger and homelessness in southwest Florida—packing and delivering more than 400 storm-ready resources and meals; stocking and reorganizing food and making campus improvements through gardening. Many thanks to our generous service project sponsors: AtkinsRéalis, Emovis, HNTB Corporation, IntelliRoad, Kapsch TrafficCom, Linebarger Goggan Blair & Sampson, LLP, Milligan Partners LLC, TransCore, LP, and ViaPlus. 

Details for the 2025 project is in the works. Stay tuned!
