They normally work on trucks - but this week a team of good samaritans is building bikes for a group of deserving kids. They're this week's KRLD Difference Makers.

They keep some of the largest fleets of vehicles rolling across the U.S.
"FleetPride is the largest heavy-duty distributor of heavy-duty truck parts and service in the United States," said Victoria Roberts who is the Director of Marketing. "We supply all of the world's commercial fleets. We keep the U.S. running."

Now the team at FleetPride is using their skills to build bikes for hundreds of kids in need.

"We are working in partnership with the Boys and Girls Club of Greater Tarrant County to build bicycles," Victoria said.

The kids said they wanted two wheels so they could "go wherever they want."
Victoria says the team is always looking for ways to give back.

Previously, the team built wheelchairs for the elderly and donated $30,000 to St. Judes Children's Hospital after donating a portion of their proceeds on North Texas Giving Day.

We're proud to call Victoria Roberts and FleetPride this week's KRLD Difference Maker

"They have several kids that are very excited to receive these so I can't wait to see pictures. I think they are going to be very surprised," Victoria said.
