Charitable Activities

Cavalier, both as a company and individual Teammates, participates in a variety of charitable activities over the year and places great emphasis on community involvement. 

Teammates Volunteer at Local Special Olympic Event

Duckworth Challenge Day - Beltsville, MD - May 2009
Despite the overcast sky and the threat of rain, James E. Duckworth Special Education School's 15th Annual Challenge Day had a great turn-out and was a roaring success!  Challenge Day is an event that provides an opportunity for Duckworth's special need students to participate in athletic events; their aim is to goal to go all the way striving to reach their own personal best.  And everyone is a winner! 

Cavalier Teammates volunteered again this year through our affiliation with AOBA, an event sponsor.  Usually known as the Apartment and Office Building Association, on this day everyone wearing an AOBA shirt was renamed Angels On Behalf of Athletes.  Teammates volunteered in different ways, such as: working the cotton candy machine, manning the auction and raffle ticket tables, escorting the Baltimore Orioles Mascot, and most importantly cheering for the athletes. 

We look forward to participating in this inspirational event for many years to come!

Kylie Paige Warnecki Scholarship

The Kylie Paige Warnecki Scholarship is awarded each year in memory of Bill and Karen Warnecki's infant daughter.  The scholarship helps Cavalier Teammates and their children reach their educational goals.  Applicants must be enrolled in or accepted by an accredited university, college, or community college.  Applicants' academic record, extracurricular activities and community involvement are taken into consideration.

Make-A-Wish Foundation

Cavalier makes annual donations to the Make-A-Wish Foundation in lieu of Holiday gifts to our Clients.  These donations are given in our customers' names and represent our desire to give back to the community.  Make-A-Wish "grants the wishes of children with life threatening medical conditions to enrich the human experience with hope, strength, and joy."  The Make-A-Wish Foundation is a great organization and Cavalier is proud to offer our continued support.

Holiday Sharing Program of Alexandria

The office staff and management of Cavalier participates in the Holiday Sharing Program of Alexandria (Sponsor-a-Family, Sponsor-a-Senior, and Sponsor-a-Teen).  The program, organized by the Alexandria Department of Human Services, provides Holiday gifts for the needy.  Cavalier Teammates enjoy participating and plan on participating in this program for many years to come.

Toys for Tots Program

Cavalier participates in the United States Marine Corp Reserves, Toys for Tots Program.  The primary goal of Toys for Tots is to "deliver, through a shiny new toy at Christmastime, a message of hope to needy youngsters that will motivate them to grow into responsible, productive, patriotic citizens and community leaders."  Cavalier respects that goal and strives to help them achieve it.
